Byte Night is the IT industry's annual sleep-out in support of Action for Children. For 14 years hundreds of individuals and teams from across the IT and business community have been spending a night exposed to the elements to raise sponsorship and awareness of Action for Children's work to help prevent youth homelessness.
Byte Night has raised over £4 million to date, and needs your support to help raise £5million since the event began! Byte Night fundraising supports the work of Action for Children, working at an early stage to tackle the issues which lead to youth homelessness such as:
- Family intervention - For two thirds of homeless young people, conflict with their family is why they are on the streets
- Young people at risk - Up to one third of young people will attempt suicide and one
in seven will have been physically or sexually assaulted - Education and training - Up to half of all homeless young people have no qualifications
Last year it was estimated that over 100,000 children and young people had spent time on the streets, please help to tackle this harrowing issue.
