Red Nose Day
Red Nose Day is back on Friday 13 March and this year sees the launch of nine brand new Red Noses, available for schools to order through the exclusive Red Noses for Schools scheme.
Selling Red Noses at school is one of the most popular ways to kick off your fundraising so why not get
involved. There are nine brand new Red Noses and this year the Noses come in surprise bags; whichever Nose they find, from Astrosnort to Supernose, your pupils will love the new characters.
Schools can buy Red Noses through the exclusive Red Noses for Schools scheme. You pay just £18 per box now as a deposit, and the remaining £42 after Red Nose Day, making selling Noses at school easier than ever. By selling Red Noses, UK schools will be changing lives forever – selling just one box could pay for an orphaned child in Zambia to go to secondary school for a whole year, offering them hope, safety and life-changing access to education.
Schools who buy Red Noses through the Red Noses for Schools scheme will also be in with a chance of finding the very special Golden Nose, hidden in your box. The school who finds the Golden Nose will win a visit and animation workshop from Aardman, the creators of Wallace and Gromit, Shaun the Sheep and Morph. Get your Noses now atwww.rednoseday.com/nosesforschools.
With great ideas from holding a sponsored silence, cleaning the teachers’ cars, selling red noses is not the only way your school can get involved. Why not hold a bake sale, have a fancy dress day, organise a Danceathon or get sponsored to take on an epic challenge. There’s no limit to the innovative ways you can raise money for this deserving charity.
And to make sure you have everything you need to make your Red Nose Day fundraising a huge success Comic Relief has produced free School Fundraising Resource Packs, stuffed full of fundraising tips, activity ideas, balloons, stickers and posters.
