Comic relief!


This Friday is comic relief and like most charities I like to take part in it. At my school we always hold different things during the day for example we always have cake sales, this year my school are also doing zumba in the school hall which you have to pay 50p to enter which me and my friends Beth and Jess are planning to take part in as we all thought it would be a fun thing to do as well as these activities we are are going to be having a mufti day which is going to cost a pound. For those of you who may not know what a mufti day is, it is when we go to school in our normal clothes and not our uniforms.

I've always liked comic relief and other charities like this as it is for a really good course and helps people in Africa, the UK, Peru and just generally all around the world who are dying or have a disability and it helps them get better facilities. It is actually quite upsetting thinking how we've got so many people dying because of the poor conditions that they are living in, when we got people in other countries who have alot of money and good facilities and gadgets.

I've always loved the celebrity singles that are produced for this charity and the fact that when people buy the single all the money goes to the charity. The last two years the singles have been quite popular with One Direction singing One way or another (teenage kicks) and Little Mix singing Word up! as both of these groups are well known and they knew that they would both be able to produce singles that would sell widely to help raise money for the charity. As for this year they have paired up two of the biggest stars at the moment Sam Smith and John Legend to sing this years single which is called Lay me down.

What I also like about the charity is the fact that they get loads of celebrities to help spread the word and also go to Africa and other countries to view the new facilities that the money from the charity goes to. Recently Youtuber Caspar Lee went to Uganda to see one of the health clinics that has been made using our donations and he said how inspiring it was to see how much of a difference it actually makes. As it is Caspar's 21st birthday in less than a month he decided to help raise money for the charity by trying to raise £21,000.

So lets all help donate and raise money for this charity and try to beat last years total of £71,820,731 which is an amazing amount of money to help those in need and I'd love to see how much money we will raise this year. So we can help those people who really need the help.
