QUIRKY Christmas knitwear brought a splash of colour to the Embleton Spa Hotel for a good cause last week.
Staff wore festive jumpers to raise money for the Stroke Association after owner Ali Dixon's father suffered a serious stroke earlier this year.
Ali said: "We've been doing it all week so we've had about 15 staff and it's been really good fun actually.
"Some people have gone for the full flashing lights on their jumpers."
The idea came from Kay Murray, one of the hotel's chefs.
