Story

I'm sleeping out on the 2nd October, whatever the weather, to help tackle the root causes of youth homelessness. Every year, 80,000 young people find themselves without a place to stay. I’m giving up my bed for one night to make a positive difference to these young people’s lives. Action for Children supports 300,000 children, young people, their families and carers, and last year Byte Night raised over £1.1 million to support this vital work.

A donation of just £5 could pay for a hot meal for a homeless young person. £10 can buy a set of pots and pans to help a formerly homeless young person start to build their own home. By donating £18, you could pay for a warm shower and hygiene kit to help a young person prepare for interviews. Thank you for your support.
