Hello secondary schools
Red Nose Day is back on Friday 19 March. Whether you dress up or down, take on a supercharged challenge or do a socially distanced quiz, let’s show the world that funny is power.
Things might look a little different this year, but with our Covid-safe tips and virtual fundraising ideas, you can still have loads of fun.
Fundraising ideas
Keep it simple with a couple of fundraising power hours or go all out with a supercharged challenge.

Sponsored superpower challenge
Reveal your class, bubble or school’s hidden superpower, then get sponsored to take on a Red Nose Day challenge. Our favourite? A power ballads danceathon, of course.
Donate to dress up
Join schools across the UK and invite students to donate to go non-uniform for the day. Pick a theme, show off your secret superpower or simply come as you are.
Pay-to-play quiz
Test your brain power with our free quiz and games pack. Pit class against class or students against teachers, charging an entry fee and selling tickets to spectators.
