Story

As a retail technology business based in Reading town centre, it’s impossible to ignore the issue of homelessness on our streets. That’s why we chose to participate in Launchpad’s Big Sleep Out, a fundraising challenge where people swap the luxury of a home and a comfortable bed, for a cardboard box and a sleeping bag for the night – all to raise vital funds and help prevent homelessness.

On the night of Thursday the 10th of October, a group of us will be swapping our comfy beds for a sleeping bag and spending the night out on the ground in the iconic and historic Reading Abbey Ruins. Every penny we raise will help Launchpad continue to provide vital support for people and families who don’t have a stable place to live or are at risk of losing their home.

Please give whatever you can to support Launchpad by sponsoring the Ecrebo crew: David Buckingham - our CEO; David Vernon - our Founder; Michael Poyser - our Chief Analytics Officer; Ashish Rajora - Devops Engineer, Beth Jennings - our Marketing Executive, Chris Wells - our Business Development Director; and me, Sarah Todd - Head of Marketing.
