Wrong Trousers Day at Work
Encourage everyone in your workplace to take part – put up lots of posters around your department or send them out to your sites or branches and ask your Manager for support.
Many companies will match the amount of money you raise £ for £ which is great for publicity and it’s good for their tax return too!
If you have a company uniform policy or a strict health and safety policy, then show your support by wearing a Wrong Trousers Day sticker and remember to collect your £1 donation in your special wrong trousers day collection box in your fundraising pack
Zip it ! Or maybe just collect the extra change in your office in a Swear Box!
