Children help raise £45m for those in need

Pupils across the county pulled out all the stops to raise money for BBC Children in Need - with everything from pyjamas and Pudsey ears to piles of spare change used to support the nationwide cause.

Schools across the UK took part in the annual appeal on Friday, November 14, helping raise more than £45,000,000 in total for charities that support young people.

At Hayesdown First School in Frome, children turned up wearing colourful Pudsey-themed accessories such as socks, badges, hairbands and, of course, the iconic Pudsey ears.
