Mum, Leigh Twist said: “Our little boy Koby is autistic and has been supporting children in need all year round!

“He has worn his Pudsey pyjamas all year round, we’ve had family and friends searching for Pudsey pjs so that we had more pairs for him to stay comfortable, clean and happy.

“This year school have been absolutely amazing and gone above and beyond, they have had Koby’s whole class in Pudsey pyjamas and was so lucky to have the Pudsey bear mascot visit all children in his class.”
