Red Nose Day

Since 1988 we've had 40 different Red Noses - which ones are your favourites? Take a look at how our fantastic fundraisers at home, work and school have helped make past Red Nose Days such a success. Softcat went all out for Red Nose Day 2013 with some fabulous fundraising and raised an amazing £37,000. Their fundraising team organised something fo... r all of their 500 staff, including FIFA videogame tournaments, 'I'm A Celebrity' Bush Tucker Trials and a bucking bronco. They even erected a dunking tank and let staff vote on which director had to take the plunge. There were some old favourites too, including chest and leg waxing sessions, a barbeque, eighties fancy dress, raffles and bake sales. "It galvanised our employees, customers and partners, was so much fun, so rewarding and cost next to nothing." Martin Hellawell, Chairman, Softcat. Steyning Grammar School turned into a sea of red for Red Nose Day 2015, with staff and students donning wacky red outfits to indulge in a day of supreme silliness. A jolly good time was had by all, with pupils lining up to take a jelly bath and have extra helpings of the stuff poured over their heads by enthusiastic onlookers. Then there was the leg waxing auction which went down a storm, as people lined up to watch the public wax-offs. It wasn't just for laughs as they raised some serious money too, £5,725.97. The people of Bishops Cleeve, Gloucestershire hit their mixing bowls once again to serve up an even bigger slice of fun for Red Nose Day 2015. The villages Tithe Barn was stuffed to the rafters for the Cleeve Community Bake Sale II, raising a sweet £2,510 in all. A humongous junior bake-off, a Victoria Sandwich competition, biscuit decorating, face-painting, a raffle and tombola kept the punters rolling in all day.Read More
