the Big Wheesht
Take part in the Big Wheesht in September 2024 and ‘Haud Yer Wheesht’ to raise vital funds.
If you are a business leader or influencer, we challenge you to ‘Haud your Wheesht’ and raise £1,000 before being allowed to talk again. Our Big Wheesht corporate challenge is a one-day event which will take place on 14 September.

Our Big Wheesht community challenge will take place between 1-30 September. There are lots of ways that you can take part in the Big Wheesht:
- Take part in a sponsored silence
- Go silent on social media
- Part with your mobile phone
- Host your own silent disco or danceathon
- Hold a lip sync battle
You can choose to remain silent in person or online. You could even host a silent event with your friends, family, or community. It could be for 2 hours, 24 hours or even more – the choice is yours. Your challenge, your way, on any date that suits you in September. Remember, the bigger the challenge, the more funds you are likely to raise!
