Byte Night brings together people who work within the technology sector
to support the work of Action for Children. The aim is to raise funds to
help tackle the causes and effects of homelessness amongst children
and young people in the UK. Participants raise money
through sponsorship for sleeping rough on one night in October.
Money is also raised through a wide range of activities generated by
the ‘sleepers’ and their companies throughout the year.
In 2009, our first year of working for this 11 year old event, we helped
to push fund raising to a new record of £600,000 and an increase in
sleepers of 25% - all in a tough economic climate.
