Giant Naked Lady Northumberlandia To Wear World's Biggest Red Nose

A massive sculpture of a naked woman is to don the world's largest red nose.

Community groups are busily creating the nose on the face of Northumberlandia, whose giant form is carved into a hill.

The sculpture, in Cramlington, Northumberland, which has been dubed Slag Alice by locals, has a nose which is a whopping 9.7m wide.

Schools, businesses and community groups in the area are being asked to create a massive red nose for the Lady of the North to raise money for Comic Relief.

Each group must create their own 1m square red collage – or provide material so that someone else can - so that the huge hooter can be formed.

...

Gilly Green, head of UK grants at Comic Relief said: "We are delighted that the Lady of the North is going to be donning a Red Nose.

"Since Red Nose Day 2011, more than £1.5m has been spent on 107 projects in the North East and money raised this Red Nose Day could go towards more projects in the region.
