Emma Jane Vincent
A huge thank you to Lee and his wonderful and supportive team for delivering a truly fabulous festival - we go to lots of festivals every year but had never been to a vanlife event …… wow!
Fabulously organised yet chilled and above all the people were wonderful and made it for us - from the moment we pulled up to a warm smiley welcome, to when we left to a smiling thank you, everyone we came into contact with were so friendly and had huge smiles on their faces.
Great food, entertainment, show vehicles and stalls - we learnt a lot and met some fabulous new friends. Also everything was reasonably priced which is a breath of fresh air!
Our highlight has to be Andy Mills kindly offering his awesome Vanimal to show the Lionesses game on Saturday - Andy, Julie, Taylor, Kev & Rache made our Saturday and introduced me to my Glitter Sisters and the wonderful Sharon Ross
Thanks Slumber on the Humber - we really hope this becomes an annual event
Melissa Windley
Until next time Slumber on the Humber it’s been amazing. I hope the photos are ok and highlight what an trulely brilliant weekend it was. Thank you for the experience of our first festival. So many nice people to talk to. I even have a new van cup to use.
Tina Louise Frary
WOW what can I say, I am unbelievably proud of my bestie Kerri Stearman and her fabulous husband Lee Stearman along with Shaun Garrett who have not only arranged there very own Vanlife festival but they have also given so many people a fantastic weekend of “therapy” ……. I mean I think they all may need there own therapy once it’s all finalised and done however I really hope there sat back tonight feeling PROUD.
Walking around listening to everyone, watching the flows of happy smiling people, a community of people all looking out for each other, helping wherever they can for no other gain than genuinely looking after everyone’s wellness has well and truelly opened my eyes. I know this weekend was about raising money for charity but you have achieved so much more than that, I am an emotional wreck writing this but your mum would be so very proud xxx
Talia Thornberry
Thank you so much from Shaney’s food, we had a great festival. We’ve never traded at a place with so many happy people! All the other traders were lovely & all the volunteers, security, entertainment, farm owners & organisers you did fabulous work & phenomenal turn out.
Has a lot of people we got to speak to today know the Shaney’s story. Those we didn’t if your interested it is below. The unbelievable distraction this weekend has provided me as a heart broken little sister has been brilliant. Thank you Lee, Kerri & Shaun & all others involved for allowing us to trade!
Hopefully see you all in the future
Remember to speak out the world can be beautiful

Just wanted to say what a privilige it was to be at the first slumber on the humber, what a truly awesome event it was and thanks to anyone who supported our business while there. We are always humbled when people choose to spend their money on one of our products or spend a moment of their precious time chatting to us.
It reaffirmed our goals of being travelling artists.... Only now its gone from a van to a revamped military vehicle

Chris Fletcher
Just a quick message from Ellie Mae Fletcher and myself . Im a “retired” single dad who home schools his daughter .a few weeks ago, Lee put out a request for somebody to take photos and capture memories of his first camping event . We were a little apprehensive of what kind of response wed receive about wandering around armed with cameras and taking photographs of folk enjoying themselves, but we offered to give it a bash. We had nothing to worry about. We have had a brilliant weekend, we took well over 1400 photos and now have a mountain of editing to do lol
We met old friends and made new ones and learnt a lot . I was an hgv driver for many years, i have worked as a dj and a door supervisor ( and run my own photography business ) so music has kept my world sane, i have never liked rap music, to me it was all about drugs guns and gangsters, Liam Cook showed me yesterday that isnt true , his emotions and lyrics gave me goosebumps and watery eyes , WOW what a star !!
There was so much going on , so many brilliant entertainers , stall holders and friendly faces we were kept on our toes , if we missed anybody we are so sorry , but we will be back if invited .
So thank you to Lee Stearman for giving us the priveledge to capture memories of his first awesome event , we thoroughly enjoyed it , so much more we could say but wel let the photos do that .

Sandra Sandyloo
Got back around an hour ago. Thanks Lee, Kerri and Shaun for the best weekend and my first ever as a volunteer. I couldn't have asked for a better crowd to work with and the campers were lovely too. I've never seen such a clean campsite. Even the weather stayed onside for us.
Hats off to Lou for keeping us organised and Roger for seeming to be able to be two places at once. Shout out to the other volunteers Sharon, Sarah, Sarah, Mo, John, John, Andy, Tina, Jo, Carolyn, Steve and Simon. I hope the rain has been kind to you all staying there today.
It was a blast and I hope to see many if not all of you again next year. I'll remember the booze this time!! Xxx

Jacqui Macauley
Only my third ever festival and second Vanlife festival. I’ve learnt that Vanlife festivals have a different vibe to others - and much more to my liking! I’ve also learned after this weekend that I need better pegs for my awning and that I need some solar lights for outside my van at night .
Have had an amazing weekend! The music, the food, the fantastic staff team and the friendly people - it’s all made for a wonderful weekend for a solo traveller
Forgot to say how much I love looking at everyone’s set-up, both on the show field and the general camping - people sure are creative
Also got chance to thank Lee Stearman in person yesterday - will be watching for info on SOTH 2024!
Dawn Jackman

Lee Stearman you and team did amazing show not to big and felt so freindley and personal everyone not got a bad word to say hopefully there will be a show next year
Damo Jones
You know I have to take my hat off to Lee Stearman for his effort with Slumber on the Humber this weekend I'm looking at the photos and i can honestly say it's the only other vanlife event I've seen this year that looks like a Vanlife Festival and i say it as it is, I believe this is due to effort and a true understanding of vanlife and how that looks and feels. The enthusiasm I've seen upto the run of this event as been a reflection of myself, I know the work involved to make it happen and I'm fully aware of what can be achieved with real passion and drive.
I can almost feel the vibe looking at the photos.
It's nice to see another Vanlife Festival on the calendar in 2023 that's been built with pride, passion and to help others.
Well done Lee any YouTuber that's not there this weekend supporting you have missed out on great Content
Have a great weekend all
