Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page.

On October 5th I will be sleeping out for Yorkshire Byte Night to raise money for Action for Children. I have had friends who when younger, through no fault of their own, have had periods of sleeping rough or sofa surfing with no place they can call home. For vulnerable young people this can be devastating at a time in their lives when they should be fulfilling their dreams.

Each year some 83,000 homeless young people receive help from homelessness services and around 150,000 young people ask their local authorities for help because they are homeless or at risk of homelessness.

Byte Night is Action for Children's biggest annual fundraiser and is a national 'sleepout' event.

Your donation will go directly to Action for Children to help them support the many thousands of homeless young people in the UK in desperate need.

Thank you for your kind generosity.
