YOUNGSTERS in Redcar and Cleveland are being encouraged to become involved in a national conservation campaign.

ACC Milk is asking children to nurture their own wildflower bed as part of the company's Wildflower Conservation campaign.

The project is being promoted on biodegradable cartons of Mr Men, Little Miss and Bash Street Kids Dairygate milk, delivered to 7,500 primary schools throughout England and Wales.

Any school wanting to take part is asked to call 0800 7312098.
