DIABETES UK is daring people to dress diabolically for Halloween by wearing their most terrifying outfits on Friday, October 30 to raise funds for charity.
The Dress Diabolical campaign is all about having fun by getting sponsored to dress up for work, schools or clubs. There’s even a new iPad up for grabs for the best dressed.
Halloween falls on Saturday, October 31, but Dress Diabolical is being held on the Friday so the fun can be shared at work and in the classroom.
Whether you’re a lone werewolf or an assembly of superheroes, Dress Diabolical is the perfect way to have fun while fundraising.
And all the money you raise will help care for, connect, and campaign alongside even more people living with diabetes as we continue our work to prevent and, one day, cure the condition currently affecting 3.9 million people.
When you’re shopping for costumes, whether you’re making them from scratch at home or rummaging through charity shops for ideas, it’s worth checking what fabrics have been used – synthetic costumes can be flammable.
Sign up now and find more information, including costume ideas and posters, by hopping on your broomstick to dressdiabolical.diabetes.org.uk.
