Francesca has done several media interviews in support of children’s reading charity BookTrust’s Pyjamarama campaign. Children and adults alike were challenged to wear their nightwear to school or to work and to pay BookTrust £1 for doing so.

This new nationwide fundraising campaign sought to remind families of the fun of bedtime stories, and help the charity make sure more families and children have books to enjoy at bedtime.
