Frankie Bridge, Fearne Cotton, Union J and Myleene Klass get festive in Christmas jumpers for Save the Children campaign 

  • Celebrities model their Christmas jumpers to promote charity
  • Fundraiser aims to raise money to support vulnerable children
A host of celebrities have joined forces to pose in Christmas jumpers emblazoned with snowmen, reindeer and even a penguin, to show their support for charity.
This group of kind-hearted celebrities, including Myleene Klass and Mark Wright, have volunteered to show their favourite cosy knits off in public, all in the name of promoting Save The Children's Christmas Jumper Day.
The fundraiser, which takes place on December 12, aims to raise money to help support vulnerable and poverty-stricken children around the world.

The charity are asking people to do this by wearing a Christmas jumper for the day and donating to Save the Children (they are asking grown-ups for a suggested £2 and schools and children for £1 per woolly).
The money raised will help save lives and the charity emphasise how just £2 could pay for potentially life-saving antibiotics to treat three babies with infections.  
So dig out your winter knitwear and join in the fun, just like your favourite celebrities.
