North Beach, Tenby, will be among those ‘decorated’ with a Christmas jumper next week to mark Save the Children’s flagship fundraiser, Christmas Jumper Day.

Save the Children has teamed up with Pembrokeshire ‘sand circles’ artist, Marc Treanor, to mark the event by creating an unique Christmas jumper design on beaches in Pembrokeshire, Anglesey, Ceredigion and the Vale of Glamorgan.

Local schools and volunteers will be joining him at Tenby beach, while local groups and the general public are invited to go along to see how the beach art is created, and are encouraged to share images on social media using the #jumpersonbeaches.

Christmas Jumper Day is back for the sixth year running on Friday, December 15 and is expecting over five-million people across the UK to take part to help raise money for vulnerable children around the world. Taking part is simple by signing up at christmasjumperday.org, sticking on a seasonal sweater and donating £2.

People can donate £5 directly to the Save the Children Christmas Jumper Day fund via text by sending TEAMSTCCYMRU to 70050.

Depending on the weather, the Christmas jumper sand logo is due to appear on Tenby North Beach between 11 am and 3 pm on Monday, December 4.
