7 December – Christmas Jumper Day
On Thursday 7 December help support local families this festive season dressed in your favourite, ugliest and cutest woollies.
Wear your most festive sweater, donate £1, £2 or £5 to SNAP and help raise money to ensure Essex families who have a child or young person with any additional need or disability always have support when they need it. Whether you are in work or working from home, you can still make Thursday 7 December a SNAP Woolly Wonderland with your colleagues, school chums or family and friends.
- Put Thursday 7th December into your diary – or pick your own day
- Share the word with everyone #snappyjumper
- Get ready for the most festive day of the year!
You don’t even need to get a new jumper – recycle an ordinary boring jumper or swap an old one with a friend!
