Make the world better with a sweater

Are you wearing a Christmas jumper for a great cause?
Today Friday the 12th of December is officially Christmas Jumper Day and raises vital funds for Save the Children UK.
The concept is very simple. You wear a festive jumper and you make a donation. Suggested donations are £2 for adults and £1 for children but you can give as much as you like.
You can wear an old jumper, buy one, make one or borrow one. You can get involved as an individual, a family, a group of colleagues, friends or bloggers!
There are a variety of ways to get your money to Save the Children UK. One of the easiest is to text JUMPER to 70050 to make a £2 donation.

A £2 donation could pay for potentially life-saving antibiotics to treat 3 babies with infections.

For every donation made, the UK Government has agreed to match it effectively doubling the level of donations.
You really can make the world better with a sweater and what better time to do this than in the traditional season of goodwill to others?
