2023 Events
We have many exciting events for you to get involved in, from running to bring a teddy to work day!
September
Bring a Teddy to Work Day - 8th September
It’s like Christmas Jumper Day, except you’re bringing a teddy from your childhood (or borrowing one from your child) to work. All we ask if for a nominal fee for taking part. There are lots of fun activities you can do, like a teddy bear’s picnic themed lunch or the ‘guess whose teddy it is challenge’ – a great way to put SLT on the spot! Let us know if you’d like to try something different and get all your colleagues involved.
Swim Serpentine - 16th September
We have 2 supporters taking laps of the fabulous Serpentine in Hyde Park, why not come help us cheer them on, maybe see if you want to sign up for next year!
Honeypot’s Annual Comedy Night - 20th September
Join us at the iconic Comedy Store in Piccadilly Circus, headlined by BAFTA nominated comedian Rachel Parris, whose hilarious segments in THE MASH REPORT and as host of LATE NIGHT MASH, have been worldwide viral smash hits across social media. Rachel will be joined by a talented line up including the award winning Dee Allum, Britain’s Got Talent finalist Nabil Abdulrashid and Live at the Apollo’s Emmanuel Sonubi, with more to be announced.
