In celebration of the amazing success of 70 years, we’re asking those across the North East to get creative with the colour purple on Friday 16th February 2024.

This could mean wearing purple clothes or having a purple-themed event like a bake sale. The possibilities are endless.

Whatever you decide to do, every penny raised will go to support the children and adults we empower every week and their families. We would love your help encouraging as many people as possible to get involved, so spread the word to parents, teachers, friends and family, and together we’ll paint the toon purple.
