LODGE Farm Nursery School at Kington Langley presented a special Christmas gift to the Rainbow Trust, which provides support for families with terminally ill children.

The youngsters' parents and families were invited to a Christmas shopping evening at the nursery, which looks after 170 youngsters between two months and five years.

There were 11 stalls and more than 120 people attended the event, which raised £360.

Children who accompanied their parents were entertained with paints and crayons.

Kelly Saunders, 21, from Queen's Square, Chippenham, who planned the evening, said: "It was much better than we expected and we raised much more than we thought."

The Rainbow Trust's care teams offer flexible respite and home support to more than 1,000 families each year in Britain.
