PUPILS at Landscore Primary School in Crediton have raised as much as £325 for BBC Children in Need.

Children and staff wore spotted clothes in exchange for a donation.

Early years pupils painted a big cut-out of Pudsey Bear, the Children in Need mascot.

Established in 1980, BBC Children in Need funds “support for children and young people struggling with challenges caused by mental health, poverty, social inequality and family-related issues”.

Its annual live fundraising telethon was broadcast on Friday, November 14. More than £45 million was raised in this year’s appeal.
