Our 2023 Appeal Films

'The Traitors' Parody
During Red Nose day, we broadcast a wide array of comedy sketches to entertain the public. This popular sketch features Claudia Winkleman (played by Dawn French) who gathers a celebrity team of ‘Faithfuls’ and ‘Traitors’.
The New Noses
This year we presented two brand new noses. Year after year, our symbolic Red Noses remind us that the even littlest of things can make a huge difference.
Starting as a tiny, flat crescent, the Nose springs into a beautiful honeycomb-paper sphere. This nose was exclusively designed by Sir Jony Ive.
The Nose That Grows
Starting from tiny seeds, the 100% composable Red Nose Wildflower Seedbom™ grew into beautiful wildflower.
