Denton and Reddish MP Andrew Gwynne makes the world better with a sweater

This year, Andrew Gwynne has popped on a pullover and posed for a photo to mark their support for Save the Children’s Christmas Jumper Day campaign which takes place on Friday 14 December. Now in its seventh year, Save the Children is asking even more people across the UK to join the woolly revolution and help make the world better with a sweater.

Since its launch in 2012 the fundraising event has raised over £17million for the world’s most vulnerable children. Over 5 million people across the UK are set to take part this year with schools, homes and offices ditching their day-to-day dress and donning their daftest, most wonderful woollies for the annual fundraiser. From knits festooned in jingling bells to jumpers covered in lights, Save the Children is hoping that 2018 will be the biggest, silliest Christmas Jumper Day ever.

Andrew Gwynne MP said: “I’m delighted to support Christmas Jumper Day, it’s a fantastic cause that does so much good, raising money and awareness for children here in the UK and around the world. Millions of people up and down the UK will be pulling on a Christmas jumper for a great cause – to help create a brighter future for children, and it’s great to be a part of it.”
