When is Christmas Jumper Day

Christmas Jumper Day is on Thursday 7 December 2023 - but you can take part any day you want!

Christmas Jumper Day is Save the Children's annual event which raises money for the children who need it most.

Every December, millions of people across the United Kingdom (and beyond!) put on a festive knit at their workplace, school or with friends and make a donation to help give children the magical future they deserve.

By dressing up and being silly you'll be helping kids facing serious issues like war, hunger and poverty. Find out more about the children you'll be helping.

Christmas Jumper Day has raised over £35 million for children in the UK and around the world since it began in 2012!

In 2022, thanks to all the amazing people who took part in Christmas Jumper Day:

• You raised a total of £5 million for children, including £2 million of match funding from the UK government
• Over 2 million school children and 24,000 workplaces took part in Christmas Jumper Day last year

The first Christmas Jumper Day was on 14 December 2012. Since then, millions of people like you have put on their jazziest jumpers for one day in December, donated £2 to Save the Children, and helped make the world better for children in the UK and around the world.
