Would you like to spend the night sleeping under the stars on the cobbles?
Byte Night is Action for Children's biggest annual fundraiser. It's a national ‘sleep-out’ event. Each year, hundreds of like minded people give up their beds for one night to help change the lives of vulnerable young people.
It all began in 1998 when 30 individuals slept out in London and raised £35,000. Since then Byte Night has grown to 8 UK locations and over 1300 people slept out in 2014 and have raised over £1.1 million. Byte Night is one of the UK’s top 20 mass participation charity events and is the largest charity sleep-out having raised over £7.2m since the first event.
As part of Byte Night 2015 one of the locations you can sleep out on is the cobbles at Coronation Street The Tour.
Due to the unique opportunity and therefore high demand to sleep on the former Corrie cobbles, £400 per sleeper needs to be raised online, or raised offline and received by Action for Children before Friday 11 September.
