Odds And Socks Day takes place on Friday 27 February 2026.


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.

On 27 February 2026, we ask our community and supporters to come together by wearing odd socks to help us raise awareness of the disease as well as vital funds for people affected by Huntington’s disease.
