Make the world better with a sweater!

That is the aim of an annual event which raises money for children in the UK and across the world.

With Christmas Jumper Day being Save the Children's popular annual fundraiser, every December it sees millions of people across the UK and beyond don a festive outfit at their workplace, school or with friends "to make the world better with a sweater."

And a leading care home group has rallied round to boost the initiative.

Staff at Lowestoft-based Kingsley Healthcare have again taken part in the annual Christmas Jumper Day held on December 8.

A spokesman said: "Christmas has really arrived at Kingsley House!

"Kingsley Healthcare’s head office staff continued their tradition of supporting Christmas Jumper Day and raising money for Save the Children."

Last month, the care home group announced that from November 14, and throughout the winter, older people will be welcomed at any Kingsley home to keep warm in a comfortable place between 10.30am and 4pm as part of the national Warm Spaces scheme.
