If you go down to Tandle Hill . . .

Teddy Bears visiting Tandle Hill country park will be sure of a big surprise at the annual Teddy Bears’ picnic.

The popular event takes place tomorrow when bears and children up to the age of eight enjoy two hours of picnic fun, food and games.

Councillor Mark Alcock, Cabinet member for citizens and neighbourhoods said: “This is a popular annual event run by the Council’s Countryside Service that is always well attended. Tandle Hill is a tremendous venue and countryside staff run a wide range of activities for all ages throughout the year. If it has been a while since your last visit to Tandle Hill I would urge you to make the effort to go along.”
