YOUNGSTERS stepped out in the sunshine yesterday to raise money for the children's charity Barnardo's.

About 70 three and four-year-old children from Eastbourne Nursery School, in Belgrave Street, Darlington, took part in each of two sponsored toddles around Eastbourne Park.

They were joined by a host of mothers, fathers, uncles, aunts and other members of their families, to help to raise money for the work of Barnardo's.
