Rugby Stars Swap Scrums for Smiles in Support of Red Nose Day

Ahead of this weekend’s crunch Six Nations clash in Edinburgh, stars of both Scotland and Wales have thrown their support behind this year’s Red Nose Day campaign.

Swapping rugby balls for the small but mighty Red Noses, the players were given the opportunity to get their hands on this year’s Noses collection, ahead of this weekend’s Doddie Weir Cup clash.

With Red Nose Day returning on Friday 21 March, players from Scotland – including Ben White, Blair Kinghorn, Cameron Redpath, Huw Jones, Jonny Gray, Ollie Smith, Pierre Schoeman and Rory Sutherland – and Wales – including Aaron Wainwright, Ben Thomas, Blair Murray, Dan Edwards, Dewi Lake, Ellis Mee, Elliot Dee, Evan Lloyd, Gareth Thomas, Henry Thomas, Josh Hathaway and Will Rowlands – were on hand to don their Red Noses in a fun-filled reminder of how easy it is to get involved and do something funny for money this Red Nose Day.

As Comic Relief hits the big 4-0 in 2025, this year’s Red Noses are celebrating some of the most iconic designs to have graced the nation’s noses. Priced from £2.50 for an individual Nose – and available to buy now on Amazon – the soft, plant-based and plastic-free Red Noses feature returning favourites from the 80s, 90s, 00s, and 10s.

There are also two brand-new Red Noses to find and collect, including a sparkly, Rare Ruby Nose – a real gem of an addition to this year’s 40th birthday celebrations – and a scrum-ptious looking Cupcake Nose, because no celebration is complete without cake.

Money raised by the Red Noses will help provide vital funds for incredible projects that help children to be happier, families stronger, women safer, communities prouder and millions of lives fairer.

Red Noses and select merchandise are available to buy now on Amazon, the official home of the Red Nose, with free delivery for all customers. Visit www.amazon.co.uk/comicrelief2025 to get your Nose ahead of Red Nose Day.
