Anderson also revealed what prompted the gifts.

Back in July 2021, Daley posted a photo of a pouch he’d knitted to store his Olympic gold medal. Anderson commented underneath it by congratulating him on winning the medal.

“When you have a spare few minutes while conquering the world, how about crocheting Jean Milburn a hat/scarf/honey cup, to wear if we do another @sexeducation season … and then we’ll auction it for your favourite LGBTQ charity?”

Daley responded with the gifts shown, which have been auctioned to raise money for the British mental health charity, Mind.

“Wanted to say a huge huge thank you to the darling @tomdaley for knitting this fantastic jumper (and crocheted willy ????) for me to wear for our final season of @sexeducation! ????????” Anderson said.

“Together we raised just over £12k for @mindcharity, which will be divided amongst 8 local Minds who work with LGBTIQA+ communities. Thank you for your stellar knitting skills Tom and for coming to visit me on set!”

She also posted a video to TikTok.
