Nightstop, Stop Out! is a sleep out at Tesco in Oakenshaw, Redditch, on Friday, October 10, taking place from 7pm until 7am.

The slogan for the event is "We're sleeping out so they don't have to" and organisers are encouraging members of the public to come and join them, by sleeping under a tent or under the stars.

The event will also involve competitions and games.
