Get your stripes for Alder Hay Children’s Hospital and support a great cause this Christmas.

For the last couple of years we have done the Elf On The Shelf tradition, (i’m totally fed up of it now and last year kept forgetting to move the thing haha, but hey ho) and so on the morning of the 24th our Elf delivers the children boxes from Father Christmas for the children to enjoy on Christmas Eve.

Every year I buy us all new PJ’s for our box which is something the children love and does help with actually getting them ready for bed as they’re usually so wired we have to begin winding down about 4!

(Have a look here for lots of other Christmas Eve box ideas)

This year I spotted Matalan were running the campaign #getyourstripes where they are helping to raise funds to enable Alder Hey Children’s Hospital to deliver life-changing research into childhood conditions like arthritis, cancer and diabetes. 100% of the profits from sales from the #GetYourStripes product goes directly to Alder Hey.

They’re also holding a PJ party on the 22nd November where you can join in with celebrities and hold your own Alder Hey PJ party at home to support the cause. Check out their social media channels with the hashtag #GetYourStripes about some special surprises and how you can get involved.

I’m really pleased that this year’s Christmas Eve Pj’s have contributed to such a great cause. If you would like to get your hands on some of the Pj’s – hell, even the dog can get some, check out Matalan’s Website here or instore now. Please note stock is low but being replenished too.
