How will you Go Red this festive season? Sign up and let's get fundraising together.

You can decide how you want to fundraise. It simply needs to include the colour red. You could host your own:

  • dress in red day
  • red-themed raffle
  • red crafts session
  • great red bake off
  • red fun run.

Together, with your support, you can help make sure we‘re here for humanity the next time someone needs us, simply by hosting your Red event and doing some fundraising. Whether you want to Go Red in your workplace, school, community group, or with family and friends, come together, have fun and raise vital funds for the British Red Cross. Together, we are the world’s emergency responders.

Sign up below to receive your Go Red fundraising pack including fun ideas of activities you can do, festive quiz, recipes and how to pay in your fundraising. 

How your donation can help people in crisis:

  • £18 - could support a refugee or person seeking asylum at risk of homelessness to buy or cook their meals for a week. This means that as the cost-of-living rises, they can still sit down for a meal, bring people together around the dinner table and create a sense of home.
  • £54 - could buy emergency supplies, such as blankets for 13 people in Syria who’ve been forced to flee their homes.
  • £75 - could allow us to keep 150 survivors of a building fire safe and warm, as we support them to find somewhere to stay for the night.
  • £100 - could provide a set of basic kitchen items to help someone start over again after losing everything in devastating floods.
