It is the eighth year of the fundraiser and brings the amount raised to date to over €138,000.
Schools, crèches, factories, shops and individuals and pets across the county took part in the 2021 Christmas Jumper Day last month..
There was lots of festive colour with jumpers of all shapes, colour and sizes, shop bought and borrowed.
