Mothers and toddlers took on a sponsored walk to raise money for cancer research.

Dovecote Toddler and Carer Group, based Nightingale Avenue, Greater Leys, held the sponsored walk, pictured above, in aid of the Impertial Cancer Research Fund.

The walk, of about a mile, took parents and those tots who were able to walk to Flaxfield Road. The event raised £147.50.

Organiser Carol Clent, of Deer Walk, Greater Leys, Oxford, said: "They really enjoyed it.

"All the toddlers were really well behaved."

Miss Clent started taking part in fundraising events to raise money for cancer research after her aunt Audrey Sawyer died of cancer four years ago.

Her cousin, Adam Clarke, has also suffered with leukaemia and is currently in remission.
