A Tottenham rapper will be among the celebrities helping raise money for charity in a Christmas telethon.

Wretch 32 is one of ten famous faces taking part in this year’s Text Santa fundraiser.

It is part of a call for the UK to sign up to Text Santa Christmas Jumper Day on December 18.

All you have to do is simply put on a festive jumper on Friday 18 and donate to Text Santa.

Text Santa is an annual Christmas appeal by ITV which starts on December 1, leading up to the Christmas Jumper Day. It encourages the public to take part in a series of festive fundraising activities throughout December.

To start fundraising visit ITV.com/textsanta where you can sign up for a fundraising kit.

The Text Santa appeal will culminate in a live three-hour TV show on ITV which will showcase the work of chosen charities - Macmillan Cancer Support, Make-A-Wish Ⓡ UK and Save the Children - and highlight how they help families in difficulty at Christmas.

Text Santa is now in its fifth year and has so far raised over £21million for UK charities.
