Scores of schools, businesses and organisations have been donning their Pudsey ears and hosting events in aid of Children in Need.

Around 30 students  from the inclusive learning department at Suffolk Rural College  were joined by staff as they took part in the walk around the grounds of the Otley based college.

The fundraising event was organised by Sarah Brunning, an inclusive lecturer at the college.

Sarah who has been running Children in Need fundraising events for 16 years said; “I work with children and young adults so it feels really important that we should be supporting causes like this.

“It’s something that has always been close to my heart.”

“I’ll definitely be watching on Friday night."
