Following 2015’s successful partnership, Edinburgh’s Hogmanay has once again joined with Unicef to help children in danger.

Last year, Edinburgh’s Hogmanay raised a fantastic amount of money to protect the children of Syria. However, the conflict has continued and there are now more children in urgent need of life-saving aid. These children have lost loved ones, homes and schools. They need someone to keep them safe and warm this winter.

Unicef will be raising money for Syria’s children through the Torchlight Parade on 30 December and various activities on New Year’s Eve, including turning Edinburgh’s most iconic buildings blue at 10pm to highlight Unicef’s work. The whole city will join together to help children in danger.
