This year, Tandem will be fundraising to support Action for Children as they aim to ensure that every child and young person in the country has a safe and happy childhood and the foundations they need to thrive.

Right now, 4.5 million children live in poverty across the UK. And with the impact of the cost-of-living crisis hitting home, they're even more vulnerable. Tonight, many will go to sleep hungry. Some won't even have a warm bed to climb into or a safe space to wake up in.

Tandem will be fundraising to make sure children have the basics like warm clothes, hot meals and a proper bed. Action for Children can help them recover from abuse and neglect and put support in place for families to protect against it happening. And, they can offer the right mental health support, so children thrive.

In its 27th year, Boycott your Bed will take place on the 3rd of October with the London Tandem Team sleeping out in Paternoster Square.
