42 Crew's "Football Shirt Day"
42 Crew’s Big Event
On Friday 12th June, the 42 Crew will be holding a special event to promote children’s rights while raising money for a very worthwhile local cause.
As Scotland are playing their opening World Cup match early on the Sunday morning, the group decided to organise a “Football Shirt Day.” On the day, children are invited to wear a football shirt or any top of their choice — this could include a rugby top, another sports team shirt, clothing linked to a favourite singer or game, or simply non-uniform if they prefer.
This event links closely to Articles 12 (Respect for Children’s Views), 13 (Freedom of Expression), 14 (Freedom of Thought and Religion) and 31 (Rest, Play, Culture and the Arts) of the UNCRC. Through this activity, we hope to encourage children to understand that people can hold different views and interests, while also recognising the importance of respecting one another’s choices and opinions.
The group has chosen the DH9 Foundation as the charity they would like to support. They felt that helping to educate people about CPR and potentially saving lives is an extremely important and worthwhile cause.
We kindly suggest a donation of £1 per family.
