Support for Friday’s Children in Need celebrations began early in Exmouth when Greggs the bakers began drumming up support ahead of the event

Children in Need celebrations started early at an Exmouth bakers when staff at Greggs began drumming up support for the charity.

Children in Need mascot Pudsey Bear-themed eats and treats, along with official merchandise, were on offer to customers - raising �350 for the cause.

Store manager Beth Langford, 22, threw herself into the spirit of the occasion, wearing the famous Pudsey Bear costume.

She said the staff planned to celebrate tomorrow’s official celebrations wearing fancy dress and holding a further bucket collection.

Exmouth will, tomorrow, mark Children in Need day with a series of fundraising events.
