About Action for Children

Action for Children is committed to helping the most vulnerable and neglected children and young people break through injustice, deprivation and inequality, so they can achieve their full potential. As one of the UK's largest children's charities, they work with nearly 156,000 children, young people and their families at 420 projects across the UK.

By supporting Byte Night you are helping Action for Children tackle the root causes of homelessness, keeping vulnerable young people off the streets and enabling them to build better lives with access to education and training opportunities.

Solving youth homelessness is about more than taking young people off the streets

Action for Children’s youth projects provide a wide range of support services to help young people avoid homelessness. These include emergency and homelessness support, supported lodgings for those leaving the care system and housing education programmes.

Their projects deal with the issues that can lead to homelessness and help to change lives with vital independence skills, training opportunities and access to employment.

Your support at Byte Night 2010 will not only help to keep thousands of young people off the streets and away from physical harm but will help vulnerable young people across the UK build better lives.
