Sid is encouraging nurseries, playgroups, primary schools and mother and toddler groups to get involved. The fundraiser runs from 7-11 October. Children, staff and parents can wear their favourite PJs during the week for a voluntary donation of £2. They will also be able to organise themed events such as best-dressed competitions and slumber party games.
Participating nurseries, schools and groups will receive an event pack that includes Humphrey’s posters, stickers, party hats, a story booklet and a certificate for each child.
The money raised will benefit The Children’s Trust in Tadworth. The charity cares for children throughout the UK who have complex health needs and disabilities. It also provides rehabilitation for children with brain injuries. The charity believes that all children with brain injuries and multiple disabilities should have the opportunity to live the best life possible.
The specialist services provided by The Children’s Trust come at a cost that is not fully met by statutory sources and it relies on voluntary donations from its supporters.
