This year's Comic Relief Red Nose Day will be here before we know it and fundraisers across Scotland are beginning preparations for the big day.
Red Nose Day is a yearly event that is organised to raise as much money as possible to help end child poverty around the world.
The day involves fundraising events up and down the country as well as TV specials.
The aim is to keep children safe, healthy and educated using the funds raised for Comic Relief.
