Thank you for being part of a record breaking Byte Night!

A huge thank you to everyone who was involved in Byte Night 2012. A record breaking 1000 sleepers from the IT and business communities braved the elements in Belfast, Cambridge, London, Scotland and Thames Valley and helped us reach our largest ever fundraising total of £950,000 across the UK.

Since Byte Night began 15 years ago, we have now managed to raise an amazing £5.2 million. Thanks to your support Action for Children has helped thousands more young people at risk of homelessness to build better lives by providing essential support, accommodation, education and training.
