If you pass by the London Eye this Friday (October 18), you’re going to see the structure illuminated with bold red lights. But why?
To mark Wear Red Day 2024, and celebrate 10 years of the event created by the charity Show Racism the Red Card, London’s famous wheel will turn crimson to raise awareness about the ongoing racism and discrimination faced by many people in the UK.
In 2023, 615,000 took part in Wear Red Day (not to be confused with Red Nose Day), in the UK. This year, the organisation wants at least 1 million people in the UK to don red, showing their solidarity with marginalised groups, and highlighting the charity’s ongoing fight against racism in Britain.
If you want to do your bit and be proudly anti-racist tomorrow, all you have to do is pop on a red t-shirt in the morning. Easy as that.
Here’s what to do in London this weekend.
