Comic Relief

On the 18th of March the Comic Relief day is celebrated here in the UK. This concept started more than 20 years ago in a Sudan refuge camp. The idea was simple, to get a whole bunch of comedians to make public laugh while they raised money to help people in need. Then in 1988 this idea or red nose day started and they raise around 15m£ with it. So in that day we can see a lot of people using the funny red noses with different themes. Mine was the pirate nose, Sara got the geek one. :D
The site is http://www.comicrelief.com/ and in the pictures you can see us preparing the day as well as it all started in Sudan...

In 1988 in one of the biggest refuges camp! 

Always ready to help the others! :D
