Heroes come in all shapes and sizes – the ECHO Community knows that better than most as we are surrounded by superheroes of all ages!

Whether your hero is a character in a book or film, or a real-life person, we’re asking you to organise a ‘Dress up as your Hero Day’ at your school or nursery.

Similar to World Book Day it’s a great opportunity for everyone to take part in a fun dressing up activity and tell their friends about their favourite hero.

We suggest you ask everyone who is taking part to make a donation – and remember to get permission from the teacher first.

If you’d like to make posters and paper chains to make the day extra special please check out our fundraising toolkit.

If you have any questions please contact our fundraising team who are always happy to help.

Don’t forget to send us pictures as we’d love to see you dressed up as your hero!

Whether your hero is an awesome adventurer, famous footballer, or a remarkable real-life wonder – join in our Dress up as your Hero Day!
