Story

Byte Night is the IT industry's annual sleep out in support of Action for Children. Each year hundreds of individuals and teams from across the business community spend a night together exposed to the elements in a bid to raise sponsorship and awareness for Action for Children's vital work.

It all began 11 years ago when 30 individuals from the IT industry slept out and raised £35,000. Since then the event has grown to 500 sleepers raising almost £470,000 in 2008 alone. Patrons, sponsors and sleepers include celebrities and leading figures, CIOs, systems developers, business managers, marketers and more.

This year Aspire Technology Solutions are proud to be taking part in the first Byte Night taking place in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne.  On October 2nd 2009 a group of Consultants and Developers will be sleeping rough on the Gateshead banks of the Tyne all to support the Action for Children cause.

We would appreciate anything you can offer to help us get towards our goal of
