The Children in Need spirit has been very much alive in Stowmarket today.

Staff from Realise Futures’ learning centre in the town have put on their Pudsey onesies and raised money for the good cause.

Caroline Hunt, 35, area delivery administrator, said: “We had a bake sale which we’ve had in Stowmarket all week with home-cooked food from all the staff. Five of us have dressed up as Pudsey and we also had a Father Christmas too.

“Myself and a colleague walked down the street to try and raise awareness of what we have been doing.

“It’s been a good day and hopefully it’s raised awareness and some money.”

The centre provides education courses for adults who are out of work and supports people with disabilities.
