DFDS Seaways has put a giant six-metre diameter red nose on the bow of one of its cruise ferries to launch its Comic Relief fund raising campaign.
Believed to be the biggest red nose – ever – it was created to launch the cruise line’s quest to raise money for Comic Relief’s Red Nose Day.
The nose was positioned on the bow of DFDS Seaways’ 162-metre-long m.s. KING OF SCANDINAVIA cruise ferry at the International Ferry Terminal just outside Newcastle.
UK managing director John Crummie said: “Comic Relief is an incredibly worthwhile charity, and their work in the UK and Africa is inspirational.
“In this current economic climate, it is more important than ever to remember that there are those less fortunate than ourselves.
“Our donations are being collected not only this week but across the year, as we will donate money for every booking we have on our Comedy mini cruises to Amsterdam.”
Five pounds from every one of DFDS Seaways’ comedy cruise bookings throughout the year will go towards Comic Relief.
In addition, on March 12 and 13 there will be a collection of money from customers within the terminal and on board the two DFDS Seaways’ cruise ferries sailing between Newcastle and Amsterdam, including in the main foyers and bars.
