A GROUP of children spent their Saturday bouncing around to raise money for other young people with cancer.

More than 50 youngsters from Abberley, near Stourport, helped to raise more than £500 from their 12-hour continuous trampoline bounce and they are hoping there is more to come.

The event, part of the Abberley Games 2012, was due to take place outside but was forced into the village hall by the bad weather.

The 12 hours was split into five minute slots and the children booked in for as many slots as they felt able to complete.

Event organiser Emma Juckes said it was a great community event and was enjoyed by all.
