FUN-LOVING youngsters have been making the most of the summer so they can raise funds for Leukaemia Research.

Pupils at Droitwich Spa Nursery have taken part in a number of fund-raising activities, including dressing up as their favourite characters in a fancy dress and favourite toy day.

Nursery manager Pam Kasperczyk said: "They really enjoyed it. A lot of them stayed in fancy dress until their parents came to take them home. Some of the staff also dressed up."

Friday's fund-raiser was the last of a series of events organised by the nursery, which has raised £500 for the charity - the nursery's chosen good cause for the second year running.

The nursery also organised a sponsored walk and toddle, a raffle, a sports day and a grandparents' afternoon.
