Bluebird Care Cheshire East celebrates Christmas Jumper Day 2019

Today Bluebird Care Cheshire East celebrated Christmas Jumper Day, an annual campaign run by Save the Children, on 13th December.

We had a lovely afternoon, and enjoyed Mince Pies, Frothy coffees (Care Manager Jayne’s speciality!) pin the nose on James Blunt and a raffle. 

It was fantastic to catch up with the team whilst raising funds for Save the Children. 

Christmas Jumper Day aims to raise important funds to support children across the world. The money raised can help them grow up healthy and safe, and get an important education, so they can have a bright future. It could go towards antibiotics to fight pneumonia, pay for a child’s school fees to allow them to get an education, or support a young person to build a new life if they are forced to leave home.

Save the Children is the UK’s leading charity to help protect children who are impacted by health, hunger and war. For a century they have stood up for children to make sure their voices are heard. In 2018 they helped children survive by:
• protecting children in humanitarian emergencies from disease/hunger
• tackling pneumonia, the biggest infectious killer of children
• fighting malnutrition, the underlying cause of one third of child deaths
• feeding thousands of children at risk of starvation in Yemen

Thank you to all who attended, we really enjoyed our Christmas celebrations!
