FUN in the sun kept children busy in Malvern at a youngsters’ play centre.

Sunshine Children’s Centre, based in Bluebell Close, staged a sponsored walk where all the participants dressed up as their favourite superheroes.

Scores of children, aged three to five, spent an hour-and-a-half walking around the area for the ‘Big Toddle’ event.

A spokeswoman said: “The children enjoyed it.”

Children were asking for money in aid of Barnardo’s.

Tomorrow (Saturday) the venue is to host a day of Olympic-themed activities.

The free event is from 10am to noon.
