Staff at Covers discarded their fleeces and flocked to don their favourite festive jumper in December to raise funds for charity.

The team were encouraged to give a minimum of £2 each which raised £350 for Sussex-based children’s hospice, Chestnut Tree House.

Chestnut Tree House cares for 300 children and young adults with progressive life-shortening conditions. It currently costs over £3.5 million each year to provide care services, both at the hospice and in families’ own homes.

Managing Director of Covers, Henry Green, said: “We love having an opportunity to raise money for a good cause so it was great to see so many of our branches across the South East participating in Christmas Jumper Day.

“Christmas is all about children, so being able to raise money for Chestnut Tree House makes me incredibly proud of the team.”
