Join Christmas Socks Day and Support Mersey Care’s NHS Charity!
This Christmas, Mersey Care Charity is inviting the community to take part in our first-ever Christmas Socks Day — a fun, inclusive, and affordable way to spread joy while supporting our hospitals, services, and NHS teams.
Not everyone working across Mersey Care can wear Christmas jumpers, especially in clinical settings — but almost everyone can wear festive socks! So we’re asking our communities, schools, workplaces, and families to support us in showing off their most colourful seasonal socks in support of our NHS.
Festive socks are a low-cost alternative to Christmas jumpers, making it easier for everyone to take part and show support.
How to get involved
Simply wear your favourite festive socks to work, school or around the house on Thursday 11th December.
Collect any donations from your friends and family
Please share your photos with us, tagging us on social media @merseycares using the hashtag #SocksForMerseyCares and #SockItForCharity. You can also email them to us charity@merseycare.nhs.uk - we would love to see them!
By joining Christmas Sock Day, you’ll help fund projects that lie beyond the scope of standard NHS budgets but make a huge difference to real people every day. Your generosity could help provide:
Resources for suicide awareness and prevention
Sensory equipment to support children during therapy sessions
Restorative outdoor spaces that promote healing and well-being
Care packages for children arriving in care
Support and resources for people living with dementia and their families
These funds help enhance patient care and staff wellbeing across Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust, improving health outcomes and experiences for our communities.
