Since 1985, Comic Relief has inspired the nation to have a laugh while raising cash to help change lives. Our vision is a just world, free from poverty.

The money you raise gets spent by Comic Relief to help poor, vulnerable and disadvantaged people turn their lives around across Africa, throughout the world's poorest countries and closer to home here in the UK.

Congratulations to Eddie Izzard – he’s won a Sports Personality of the Year Special Award for running an astounding 43 marathons in 51 days around the UK for Sport Relief! It’s not too late to show your support for his amazing feat, so please donate now.
