ABTA Lifeline is calling on all travel industry staff to wear a tropical shirt on 15 June for its Big Charity Day, donate to the charity and make everyone smile. For those that don't have a bright shirt, you can still wear your favourite beach outfit or simply a pair of sunnies! Its an opportunity to celebrate and support the charity in its ongoing efforts to help travel staff in need.

With the cost of living crisis we know what a difficult time some of our travel colleagues have had. ABTA LifeLine continues to provide practical, emotional and financial support to those in real need.

So, on 15 June please show just how much travel cares by putting on your best tropical shirt or beachwear, and donate £2 or whatever you can to LifeLine. A small contribution right now could make a big difference to someone else. Every donation allows us to continue supporting our travel industry colleagues who need it most.

£50 will help with a basic food shop; £100 debt, benefit or housing advice, £300 counselling support. But the charity does so much more. From school uniform to fridges, funerals to crisis grants to help with rent, mortgage and council tax, our LifeLine stretches far and wide.
