Charity Pyjama Week, which is running in all lessons between 5th-11th October, teaches our swimmers invaluable personal survival skills and raises money for charity; all while having lots of fun!

Can you help our national charity partner to deliver more pyjamas to children in need than ever before?

A reminder of the wonderful work they do:

"Spreading love through comfort by donating brand new pairs of pyjamas to poorly children in hospitals, hospices and women’s refuges."

Founded in 2010, Charmaine Green set up the charity after her daughter was an in-patient having been diagnosed with Leukaemia. They were left a gift package by another family and the comfort that brought to Charmaine and her daughter made Charmaine want to provide the same to all children who are unfortunate enough to be an in-patient, either in hospital, a hospice or refuge.

Here at Puddle Ducks, when we learnt about their cause, not only were we blown away with what the charity had achieved over the last 13 years, we also thought that so many of our customers will have empathy with the charity's mission; working with little ones, we know of so many customers who have found themselves in hospital with their children over the years.

The effect that a seemingly small gesture of a new pair of pyjamas for a child who finds themselves in need has, cannot be underestimated and the increased demand for the wonderful service that Children's Hospital Pyjamas provides is testament to this.
