YOUNGSTERS at a nursery in Swindon will be celebrating the London Marathon in their own way next week.

The children at the Jigsaw Day Nursery, off Pipers Way, will mark the day by carrying out their own sponsored fun run around the nursery garden.

The youngsters will be raising money for the children's charity NSPCC through their efforts on Monday.

Dozens of Swindon runners are limbering up for this year's 26-mile run through the streets of London on Sunday.

And about half a million people are also expected to take to the streets to help cheer the runners on.
