Greggs release Christmas jumper in tribute to the iconic vegan sausage roll

A Greggs festive jumper has been unveiled by the same people who sold the famous Gareth Southgate and David Attenbrr! Christmas jumpers.

Social enterprise notjust sold the famous Christmas jumpers in order to raise more than £80,000 for charity since 2017.

The bold turquoise festive knit pays homage to the iconic vegan sausage roll - 50 per cent of profits from every purchase will be donated to charities supporting the environment.

Much like the beloved snack, the jumper is vegan-friendly knit and adorned with the meat-free roll, alongside festive bakes which make their return next week despite Greggs suffering from supply chain issues.

It comes as Greggs is in danger of running out of vegan sausage rolls this Christmas.

Notjust has also launched a petition to have the plant-based snack listed as an endangered species.

The group has also launched a new recycled collection of previous jumpers including the Three Lions, Cyprocurrency, David Attenbrr and Princess Diana knits.

Iconic favourites also include the Peaky Blinders, Louis Theroux, Fleabag, an Strictly Come Dancing knits.

The unisex Christmas jumpers range from £24.99 to £39.99 and come in a variety of sizes from XS-XXL.

Matt Clarke, co-founder of notjust, said: “There is no other greater marker of Christmas truly being back than the release of the festive bake. So roll up, roll up and grab it while it’s hot as when this limited edition – vegan-friendly – knits are gone they are well and truly gone.”
