With the public’s help, Red Nose has reduced the rate of SIDS in Australia by 85 per cent but there is still more work to be done.
Support Red Nose Day in its 32nd year this Friday, August 14, by making a donation or purchasing a red nose, with the merchandise available from Big W at Campsie Centre.
Big W manager Euripides Loukidis says Woolworths and Big W are great supporters of Red Nose Day and are only too happy to help raise funds for vital research and ease the pain of grieving families.
“It’s one of the ways we are happy to give back to the community and have red noses for sale now for $3,” he said.
Funds raised will directly benefit the community – through funding vital research, safe sleeping and pregnancy education, and bereavement support.
Over 10,000 children’s lives have been saved in the last three decades but still more than 3,000 die every year. Public support of Red Nose Day is critical to help stop these nine babies dying suddenly and unexpectedly each day.
