National Wear Red Day
National Wear Red Day, on Friday 24
February, is when we encourage
people across the UK to wear red and fundraise so that we can
continue our lifesaving work. In previous years our
supporters have held wear red days at their workplace, at
school and at mother and baby mornings as well as many others.
Rachel Stevens launched National Wear Red Day for us this year.
