Nottingham family selling rainbow socks in attempt to raise £20,000 for the NHS

A family from Nottingham is selling rainbow socks in an attempt to raise £20,000 for the NHS.

All proceeds from the 6,000 pairs of socks that they hope to sell will be donated to the NHS.

Florence Orr, aged 11, was inspired by the rainbows around where she lived, and created her own rainbow design.

Her parents, Will and Victoria Orr, who are sock specialists, then turned Florence's illustration into socks and started fundraising for the NHS.

A three-pack of socks are available to buy on their website and are available for £10.

£9,000 has so far been raised for the NHS of their £20,000 goal.
