We are planning to spend the night sleeping outside on the concrete, in rainy Manchester, to raise funds and awareness to support Action for Children on Friday 3rd October 2014. These guys tackle the root causes of homelessness, keeping vulnerable young people off the streets and enabling them to build better lives.

Some quick facts, if you need convincing...

- Each year in the UK, 80,000 young people find themselves homeless

- 1 in 3 are care leavers

- 1 in 7 will be sexually abused
