Dig out your sunglasses to support Shades Day on Friday and help struggling families get a much needed break away from home.
Shades Day is the national fundraising and awareness day of the Family Holiday Association, the only national charity dedicated to providing short breaks and day trips for families coping with some of the toughest challenges life can bring.
On May 18 we’re encouraging everyone to wear a pair of shades, whatever the weather! It couldn’t be easier to get involved. All you need is a pair of sunglasses and a bit of imagination! Visit our website for some inspiration and to request your fundraising pack.
Wearing and sharing photos in your sunglasses on social media for Shades Day helps spread the charity’s message that everyone deserves a chance to paddle in the sea, build a sandcastle and wear shades on the beach for the very first time. And, of course, funds raised will help us send more families on a vital break in 2018.
For many struggling families in desperate circumstances, the joy of simply seeing each other smile can lift them out of everyday cares and worries and enrich their lives forever.
