###### A really big thank you to everybody that took part in the 2016 Save the Children Christmas jumper day on Friday 16th December.   Staff from both the Sheffield and Chesterfield offices wore festive jumpers and donated, raising a total of £220.30 for the charity event.

According to information on the [Save the Children](https://christmasjumperday.org/how-you-help/) website

“You won’t believe your mince pies when you see how much your pennies and pounds could help to provide. It gives children from Surkhet district, mid-Western Nepal, pictured, access to after school clubs which help to educate them about the dangers of child marriage. It could also help us bring essentials like healthcare, education, protection and food to the millions of children around the world who are missing out on the most basic support. Every year, millions of children around the world die before their fifth birthday from easily preventable diseases like malaria, diarrhoea and pneumonia. Many more are forgotten simply because they were born in the wrong place, or because they are girls, refugees, disabled or from a minority. We won’t rest until every last child gets the chance to grow up healthy and happy. Your support will help us achieve our goal."
