Dear editor,
The NSPCC is calling on nurseries and schools across Scotland to join us for the Childhood Day Mile and raise vital funds to help keep children safe.
Childhood Day, on Friday 9 June, is our flagship day of fundraising where children and adults are encouraged to walk, hop, skip or wheel a mile to help raise money for children across the UK.
We’re asking schools, organisations, families and friends across Scotland to sign up.
Details on how to take part and help us raise funds for NSPCC projects can be found on the NSPCC’s online Childhood Day Hub and there are resources available to schools, nurseries and childcare groups that sign up.
