Schools invited to celebrate the 40th Comic Relief

Teaching resources
Red Nose Day this year takes place on March 21 and schools are once again being invited to take part with resources on offer to support fundraising activities.
Impact: This year marks the 40th anniversary of Comic Relief, in which time the annual initiative has raised £1.6bn for good causes in the UK and abroad. - Comic Relief

As ever, schools and teachers are being invited to get involved in a number of Comic Relief fundraising initiatives – or to come up with their own.

This year marks Comic Relief's 40th birthday and as such a national Big Birthday Bake Sale is to take place with a Red Nose Day Bake Kit available for schools, including suggested recipes. Cakes can be raffled or sold and teachers will be encouraged to share their pupils’ creations on social media: www.comicrelief.com/bake

Elsewhere, Comic Relief is also suggesting that schools could create “ironman” style activities in PE after former racing driver Billy Monger took on the Ironman World Championship in Hawaii last year in aid of Red Nose Day.
