We're one of three charities who will be benefiting from celebrations for St. George's Day 2007.

St. George's Day is about celebrating England and what it means to everyone who lives here. This year Enjoy England has launched a campaign so that everyone can get involved.

From 5 February until St.George's Day, 23 April 2007, there will be fundraising activities in all 50 English cities. There will be competitions with big cash prizes, and the Loving Cup of England ceremony is also being reintroduced. The ceremony dates back more than a thousand years and involves people drinking from a specially commissioned Cup in an act of peace, friendship and harmony within their community.

The celebrations will end with a grand banquet in Westminster with leading politicians, celebrities and representatives from the three charities.

Fundraising activities will raise money to help support our work and the work of two other charities, AICR  (external link, opens new browser window) and WRVS (external link, opens new browser window). Get involved by planning your own events (external link, opens new browser window) or entering one of the competitions (external link, opens new browser window).
