On any day in December, you can organise some festive fun in your workplace or your school or college, by putting on a pair of your own festive or Christmas-themed socks, which you can buy in any local shop. We suggest a donation of €2 per person but all donations welcome. To sign up, simply contact niamh@cuhcharity.ie or call 021 423 4529 for more information, and support the work of CUH Children’s Unit throughout December.
Miriam Forde, CUH Charity, said at the launch: “We want everyone to come out in force and have lots of festive fun this Christmas, while at the same time supporting a great cause. Why not get all your colleagues, team or class together in December and wear and show your support for CUH!”
