Your Purple Picnic fundraising makes a real difference to the lives of bereaved children & young people.

“Nelson’s Journey listened. They gave me hope. I mattered again. And most of all, they gave me my smile back”

Anyone can host a Purple Picnic!

This summer, schools, work colleagues, friends & families will be holding their own Purple Picnic. Some will be remembering a special person that has died too. All of them will be fundraising to support Norfolk’s bereaved children and young people. Join in the fun and sign up today!

Some people and groups will hold virtual Purple Picnics: if your event is hosted by a workplace, then this a great way to involve colleagues who are working from home or at other sites. Simply set-up your usual video meeting software and invite your guests digitally. Donations can be collected online too!

Each year, Nelson’s Journey promotes a Purple Picnic week during which many events are held. This year’s Purple Picnic week took place in early July – thank you to everyone who organised a picnic during that week. It’s not too late to hold one of your own over the summer – please pick a date for your Purple Picnic and sign up today!

You can hold your Purple Picnic in lots of places
