Story

Aspinline is thrilled to have supported Action for Children’s Byte Night for the past four years. The overnight sleep out event is one of the UK’s largest fundraisers to prevent youth homelessness. Every year, 83,000 young people find themselves without a place to stay. 1 in 7 homeless young people will have been physically or sexually abused and 1 in 3 will try to commit suicide. Byte Night participants give up their beds for one night to make a positive difference in the lives of these young people.

This October will mark Aspinline’s fifth year donating wristbands to Byte Night, and our first year attending and sleeping out at the event here in Bristol.

Action for Children supports 370,000 children, young people, their families and carers,
and last year Byte Night raised over £1.25 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.

Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
