Moves are again being made to ensure the region’s children stay snug and warm this winter.

The Jammies 4 June fundraiser is heading into its sixth year and donations are being taken now.

Jammies 4 June is a fundraising drive in which new Pjs and winter items are collected to give to children in need across our community.

Last year was a huge success, with over 900 items given out to children.

All donations are given out locally to charities and services that work with children.

“Jammies 4 June has a team of volunteers this year who are helping in all areas — from contacting businesses to collecting Jammies, distributing posters and more.

“It’s amazing to have such an enthusiastic and dedicated team together, working for the love of children in our community,” organiser Cassandra Blumfield said.

“Awapuni School have a spare classroom which they have kindly given Jammies 4 June use of to store and sort all the Jammies.
