National Family Week

31st May to 6th June 2010

National Family Week aims to highlight the important role families play in society and encourage healthy active lifestyles and quality family time. Now in its second year, National Family Week is the largest coalition on family issues and is backed by all major political parties and a huge range of national charities, community groups and sporting associations.

Over 5,000 events will take place during National Family Week 2010, plus record breaking excitement, giveaways, competitions and activity ideas to encourage families to spend quality time together. It’s going to be a jam-packed fun week and National Family Week would like your organisation to get involved.

You can run events as fundraisers, to showcase the good work that you do, to get a serious message across to families or simply to have fun. They could be pre-existing events, just co-branded National Family Week or new events run specifically for The Week. Your events can be featured on the National Family Week website to encourage families in your local area to attend and we’ll also supply materials such as stickers, posters, bookmarks and balloons at no cost to you.

For further information on the plans for The Week, theme day toolkits and promotional resources, visit the National Family Week website at www.nationalfamilyweek.co.uk and register for the Partner Zone.
