The special day is in aid of the children’s charity Save The Children and people are urged to ‘wear a woolly and save lives’.
However, some companies have done a similar initiative to raise money for local charities.

Martyn Beck, manager at Covers in Chichester, said: “We were delighted to unite the Covers team and get into the Christmas spirit with a huge range of fun and festive jumpers. We’re very proud to help raise funds for Chestnut Tree House – it’s such a worthwhile cause.”
With Christmas festivities in full swing, Chestnut Tree House is asking Sussex residents to ‘fundraise as you get festive’ to help make this Christmas extra-special for its children and their families.
