Shaun the Sheep

Shaun is helping us make Christmas Jumper Day 2024 the best day ever!

This year, Shaun the Sheep has taken on a new fleece of life!

He's encouraging schools and youth groups up and down the country to sign up and take part in Save the Children’s Christmas Jumper Day on Thursday 12th December.

As the charity’s new ‘Head of Wool’, Shaun has collaborated with Save the Children to make the world better with a sweater and wants children across the UK to join the flock.

It’s simple:

  1. Sign up and get your free fundraising pack
  2. Get your jumper out. You don’t have to buy a new one, upcycle an old jumper with tinsel and baubles. Or buy a Shaun the Sheep sew-on badge or pin badge from Save the Children’s online shop from 7th October to turn your jumper into a festive masterpiece, with 100% of profits donated to Save the Children.
  3. Donate to Save the Children. By having fun and raising money, you’re creating lasting change for and with children in the UK and around the world.

When you sign up to Save the Children’s Christmas Jumper Day, you'll receive a free fundraising pack with lesson plans, festive activities and all the information you need to plan the merriest day ever.
