The housing association in West Ham Lane, Stratford held a bake sale and encouraged everyone to come into work dressed in red.

Organiser Anne Hawkes, secretary to the assistant director of HR, said: “Red Nose Day is a great cause and it’s always a fun day.

“People like making fools of themselves for charity – today a director was walking around with a red nose head bopper – and it really brings people together and encourages office participation.”

If you’re holding a fundraising event for Comic Relief, dressed your children up for Red Nose Day at school, or you’re simply donning a red hooter today for fun, we want you to share your pictures and videos with us!
