What Is Red Nose Day?

Red Nose Day is a day like no other when the whole country gets together to do something funny for money and change countless lives in the process.

It all culminates in a night of cracking TV on the BBC with some of the biggest names in comedy and entertainment.

And the best bit? All the fun and mayhem helps to raise cash and transform lives across the UK and Africa.

It's Not Too Late

It’s not too late to be part of Red Nose Day and help transform lives across the UK and Africa. Here’s how you can still make a difference:

The Difference It Makes

Red Nose Day is your chance to transform the lives of poor, vulnerable and disadvantaged people across the UK and Africa.

From restoring the sight of children in Africa to giving isolated older people in the UK the support they need to enjoy their lives – your cash can do all this and much, much more.

Whatever you do to get involved, the difference you’ll make is nothing short of amazing.
