It is Christmas Jumper Eve, with Save the Children inviting schools, work places and organisations to take part in its annual fundraiser on Thursday.
The charity which organises the annual fundraiser, has said that the 2025 edition will be held on December 11.
Christmas Jumper Day has been held since 2012 and represents one of the biggest events in the annual calendar for the organisation, which supports children worldwide.
“By taking part this year you can help support kids and families who are having to deal with an increasingly volatile world,” a Save the Children spokesman said.
Arsenal have supported Christmas Jumper Day in the past.

How to take part in Christmas Jumper Day 2025?
Participants should sign up on the Save the Children website and invite everyone to take part, usually requesting a donation to be part of the fun.

Where to get a Christmas jumper
Most major high street fashion retailers now have Christmas jumpers in stock, while there is also a good chance you might be able to grab a bargain in a charity shop.
Sports clubs often stock a cheeky jumper if you want to show off your allegiance while also raising money for a good cause.
When is Christmas Jumper Day?
Christmas Jumper Day is held annually and will be on Thursday, December 11, in 2025 – with Save the Children hoping this year’s edition will see donations top the £2.5 million raised in 2024.
The charity has said that if another day works better to be your Christmas Jumper Day, that is totally fine and you can hold it whenever (although probably post December is too late!)
