Tandem announced as Supporting Sponsor of Boycott Your Bed

Issued: Thursday 11th September 2025

4.5 million children now live in poverty in the UK. That’s 31% of all children. Every night many will go to bed hungry, struggle to sleep in a cold, damp house, and start the next day without a warm coat or shoes that fit. Tandem are fundraising in partnership with Action for Children to help make sure children in the UK have what they need for a safe and happy childhood. Things like warm clothes, hot meals, and a proper bed.

In its 28th year, Boycott Your Bed takes place on Friday 3rd of October with the Tandem Team sleeping out across the country in London, Manchester, and Leeds.

We are asking all our colleagues, contacts, partners and friends to support our teams by making a donation and help us reach our £60,000 target for the year. The London and Birmingham teams’ JustGiving pages are now live – see below. Leeds to follow very soon. Please follow us on Linked-In and spread the word. We dearly would love to smash our targets.
