On Friday 20 March 2026, schools, workplaces and community groups across the UK came together to celebrate Comic Relief’s Red Nose Day, uniting in a national effort to raise funds and awareness for those facing hardship. The spirit of generosity has been felt nationwide, with over £30 million already raised to support vital projects that help individuals and families experiencing challenging circumstances both in the UK and internationally.
Across the Foundation, several of our schools threw themselves wholeheartedly into the celebrations. Pupils and staff from King Edward VI Lordswood School for Girls and King Edward VI Northfield School for Girls embraced the fun and creativity of the day, arriving in brightly coloured outfits, taking part in light-hearted activities, and spreading joy throughout their communities. Their enthusiasm not only showcased their commitment to a worthy cause but also highlighted the power of collective action, reminding us that small acts of fun and solidarity can make a meaningful difference.
We are incredibly proud of our schools for championing such an important national campaign and for demonstrating the Foundation’s values through community spirit, humour and heartfelt support.
