How Does It Help?

HOW DOES IT HELP?

The money you raise is spent by Comic Relief to help people living incredibly tough lives, both at home in the UK and across the world's poorest countries. It goes a long way too. From transforming the lives of people in the UK’s most disadvantaged communities, or those living with poor mental or physical health, to protecting street children and providing life-saving healthcare abroad. And all that's just for starters. Find out more.

HOW CAN I JOIN IN?

The best way to take part in the UK’s biggest year of sport is to enter the Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile. With hundreds taking place across the UK, there’s bound to be one near you. Alternatively, you could do your own fundraising at work, in school, with family and friends or on your own.

£350

  • What They Did

    Idris was very proud of his family (especially his eight-year-old son, Adam) when they did 6 miles in Northampton for Sport Relief 2010. Between them they raised a staggering £350!

  • What It Can Do

    £350 could pay for 875 children in Uganda to have a rapid diagnostic test for malaria. This means they can get the right treatment quickly and gives them a chance of surviving long enough to reach hospital.

    See what your cash can do

  • I’ve seen first-hand the difference that Sport Relief makes to people’s lives and I’d do (almost) anything to raise cash. Even if it helps just one person, it’s got to be worth it.

    David Walliams, Comedian

  • It’s completely changed my life. I can talk to adults here without worrying about what I’m saying. I can let it all out. It’s safe here.

    Eleven-year-old Sophie, who attends Comic Relief-funded youth group Teen Safe House in Southampton

  • We had a fantastic day and I am proud of what we achieved and how such a great cause can bring families and friends together for a great day of community spirit!! Thank you!

    Simon from Cornwall ran the Mile with his seven-year-old son and raised a fantastic £155.

  • Sport Relief provides the ideal opportunity for employees to do something amazing for those less privileged than ourselves and have fun at the same time. We’ve also benefited from a motivated, energised team getting together to make it all happen.

    John Appleton, formerly Corporate Social Responsibility Manager, Cisco
