Ella and George Richardson, from Giggleswick, have been busy fundraising.

The children, aged nine and five, sold bags of sweets to their neighbours, and made buns, biscuits and lemonade which they sold on Conistone Village Green after distributing posters and leaflets to promote their charity stall.

The villagers all turned out to support the children, who raised £50 for the Sue Ryder charity, which runs Manorlands Hospice.

Sue Ryder fundraiser Rachel Cordingley said: “We are extremely grateful to the children.”
