What is Sport Relief?

Sport Relief brings the entire nation together to get active, raise cash and change lives.

It has a unique history of dedicated people doing extraordinary things to rise to the challenge - from David Walliams’ astonishing swim across the English Channel, through to Eddie Izzard’s truly amazing marathon a day around the UK.

And, following in their footsteps, hundreds of thousands of people across the UK are inspired to rise to the challenge and raise cash to change lives - from taking part in the Friday of fundraising fun, right through to doing the Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile on Sunday.

The best part is that all the money raised is spent by Comic Relief to help transform the lives of poor and vulnerable people, both at home in the UK and across the world’s poorest countries.

What is Red Nose Day?

Red Nose Day is a UK-wide fundraising event organised by Comic Relief every two years. On Red Nose Day everyone is encouraged to cast inhibitions aside, put on a Red Nose and do something a little bit silly to raise money - celebrities included! It culminates in a night of extraordinary comedy and moving documentary films on BBC One. It’s an event that unites the entire nation in trying to make a difference to the lives of thousands of people, both across Africa and in the UK, who face terrible injustice or who live in abject poverty.
