Story
Red Nose Day is back on Friday 21 March and we're joining people across the nation to do something funny for money.
Over the past 40 years Comic Relief has supported over 100 million people across the world, including here in the UK.
This year Sami and Rafi will be going large to celebrate 40 years of Comic Relief and challenging themselves to a triathlon which will cover 340 plus miles between them.
Their aim is to cover the distance of the roads that cover the width of the UK which curve and looks like a smile spread across the UK from the road map.
Rafi will be rowing, cycling and running just over 220 miles and Sami will be rowing, cycling and running too for just over 120 miles. That's the distance from Great Yarmouth (in Norfolk) to St. Justinian's (on the Pembrokeshire coast) in Wales. Sami will be wearing some of his funny outfits to spread a smile on people's faces as he goes about doing his challenge.
The boys are hoping that the many miles they cover will highlight the daily struggles children around the world have to do daily. Where children have to cover many miles for basic needs such as water, food, medicine and even schooling.
It is difficult financially nowadays, but please do donate generously. There are many children, families, young adults and many more in the UK and abroad that need a helping hand. So please be that person and give a helping hand to our friends and the best way to do that is to donate to Comic Relief.
This Red Nose Day, let’s giggle again to help put food on plates, roofs over heads, and keep little ones safe.Red Nose Day 2025. Go big. Give big. Feel good.Don't forget to tick the Gift Aid option, if you can, so Comic Relief can claim an extra 25% from the government.
