Wear Red Day 2022

Wear Red Day

Have you heard? We’re SO pleased to be back partnering with Show Racism the Red Card, to promote ‘Wear Red Day’ on 21st October 2022. Wear Red Day is as simple as it sounds (honest!), just pop on your fave red item and donate £1 to support Show Racism the Red Card in all the amazing things they do. ​

Show Racism the Red Card (SRtRC) is the UK’s leading anti-racism education charity – using the high profile of iconic professional footballers as role-models that stand in solidarity against racism in society. Not only does the charity provide invaluable educational resources, but they deliver programmes of direct anti-racism education to over 50,000 young people and more than 6,000 adults every year – pretty impressive right?!​

Also, this year, we are giving THREE schools the opportunity to win up to £5,000 worth of branded sports kit when you register for Wear Red Day! This is our third year of partnering with SRtRC for Wear Red Day, and in previous competitions we have provided books and sports equipment to support schools and saw a 36% increase in the number of schools who registered. However, in light of the cost of living crisis, for this years competition we wanted to ensure our donation would aid schools in supporting those who may need a little bit of extra help during this time. ​

🏆 1st Prize- 200 items of branded sports kit including shorts, t shirts, hoodies and trousers​​

🏆 2nd Prize- 150 items of branded sports kit including shorts, t shirts, hoodies and trousers​

🏆 3rd Prize- 100 items of branded sports kit including shorts, t shirts, hoodies and trousers​

Our aim this year is to get as many schools as possible to sign up, so whether you are a teacher or a parent- we all have a part to play! Registrations are open until midnight 16th of October, so don’t miss out on supporting SRTRC & Wear Red Day! ​
