Emma Bunton and Holly Willoughby among stars backing Christmas Jumper Day

Spice Girl Emma Bunton and presenter Holly Willoughby are among several stars to have donned reindeer antlers, elf hats and festive knits in aid of an annual festive fundraiser.

The pair, along with other the famous faces, are supporting Save The Children’s Christmas Jumper Day on December 10.

Also signing up for the tenth year of the campaign are football pundit Alex Scott wearing a red jumper emblazoned with a reindeer face, and Olympic boxer Nicola Adams in a festive red robin knit.

The fundraiser is encouraging the nation to upcycle, borrow or buy a second-hand festive sweater this year to make this year's event the most sustainable yet.

Comedian Joel Dommett, meanwhile, is also getting into the festive spirit with a reindeer jumper featuring baubles and tinsel, whilst Good Morning Britain presenter Kate Garraway embodies a Christmas tree with a green jumper and matching hat.

Other celebrities include chef Andi Oliver, actor Adil Ray, soap star Nina Wadia and TV doctor Dr Ranj Singh, who are also dressing in festive knits for the charity.

Made in Chelsea star Georgia Toffolo, comedian Lee Ridley, actor Adam Pearson and former Love Island star Wes Nelson are also taking part.

Christmas Jumper Day has raised more than £27 million for Save the Children since its launch in 2012.
