Louth people urged to host Christmas Jumper Day in aid of Childline

ISPCC, the charity dedicated to enhancing the lives of children and young people, is appealing to people in Louth to host a Christmas Jumper Day this year, to help raise funds in aid of Childline, Ireland’s only 24/7 listening service for children and young people.

Getting dressed up is all part of Christmas fun and ISPCC say the perfect way to show off your fabulously festive attire is to host a Christmas Jumper Day in aid of Childline at your workplace, school, club or creche. You can even do it virtually for colleagues who aren’t in the office.

Go to www.idonate.ie/event/childlinechristmasjumperday to set up your fundraising page. When you create your page, Childline by ISPCC will be in touch to help you pick a date for you and your colleagues, friends or family and can post out posters, stickers and balloons if needed! 

They will also send you email signature, a zoom/teams background if needed as well as digital posters and proposed social media posts. 

ISPCC needs to raise up to 75% of its funding through donations each year to ensure it can be there to support children and young people 24-hours a day, 365 days of the year.  It relies on the generosity of the public and are grateful for all support.

ISPCC encourages children to reach out for any reason. Childline’s 24-hour support line can be contacted for FREE, 365 days a year 24/7.  Children can chat online at childline.ie or call 1800 66 66 66.
