A team of Civica dare devil fundraisers will abseil off the Spectrum building in Bristol on Wednesday 13th September at 10.30am to raise money for Byte Night, the UK’s largest sponsored sleep out, to help ensure vulnerable young people across Bristol and the South West have a safe and loving place to call home.


Byte Night Providing ‘Critical Support’



Civica’s UK Product Strategy Director and Byte Night co-chair, Tony Hughes, said:

“Byte Night is so much more than spending a night on the streets to raise awareness.

Companies across the UK have undertaken many fundraising events off their own bat and Civica is no exception.

It was someone’s bright idea to abseil down our iconic office building in Bristol and the team are really excited about this undertaking!

However heart stopping it may be on the day, it’s the young people which Byte Night provides critical support for who will be front of mind.”

On 6 October 2017, more than 100 people, will be sleeping out in Bristol as part of Byte Night – the UK’s largest sleep out, taking place in ten cities across the country.

Teams from South West businesses will be spending the night tucked up in their sleeping bags at the iconic Millennium Square in Bristol to raise money for charity Action for Children.




Byte Night 2016 raised over £1.2 million, with more than 1,200 people sleeping out on one night across the UK.
