Right now, 1 in 5 adults and 1 in 3 children are living with poverty. This Challenge Poverty Week, it's time to show you believe everyone in the UK should be able to live with dignity.

How you Go Orange for Turn2us is up to you! Lots of people will be wearing orange and donating during the week, but using orange as your theme, you can take on any challenge of your choosing.  You could:

  • donate to wear something orange for a day
  • hold a fundraising cake bake with your award winning orange cake
  • organise a raffle - with prizes wrapped in orange ribbon!
  • get sponsored to dye your hair everyone's favourite citrus colour!

Whatever you get up to, every penny you raise will help to fight financial insecurity in the UK.

Your donations could:

  • support a family to buy a new cooker so they can feed their children.
  • help cover a week of groceries for a family struggling to keep food on the table.
  • provide a grant to help towards paying the rent, keeping a roof over the head of someone in need.
