There are loads of ways to spread the word, raise money for #ShadesDay and help struggling families to get a break.

Ask everyone to wear their favourite shades and make a donation

Hold your own sweepstake by downloading our poster and guessing the name of the Shades Day Whale – coming soon!
5. Hold a Raffle
Everyone loves a good raffle, grab a few prizes and charge £1 a ticket
6. Sunny Bake-off!
At home or work, get the baking going and the donations flowing!
7. Famous Shades Film Night
