Staff and some residents at Franklin House Residential Home, in Oldham, are wearing the PJs to work all week to raise funds for Children in Need.
The kind-hearted fundraisers, led by activity co-ordinator Marie Brady, are ending their fundraising feat with a get-together, quiz and raffle on Friday.
