Odds And Socks Day take place every year at the end of February.


What Are The Odds?

Huntington's disease is genetic with 50:50 odds of inheriting it. That’s a one-in-two chance. Odds And Socks Day aims to highlight the odds of inheriting Huntington’s.

Donate here

On 27 February 2025, our community came together wearing their odd socks to help us raise awareness of the disease as well as vital funds for people affected by Huntington’s disease.
