Villagers are staging a fun run and walks this weekend to raise funds for charity.

Julie Blackwell and Julia Scales, of Tallentire, came up with the idea, and are being supported by various residents. All proceeds will go to The Brain Tumour Charity.

A three-mile fun run and walk will start in the village and end at the bottom of Tallentire Hill. There is also a shorter walk for children with clues along the way.

There will be a prize for the person wearing the silliest bobble hat.

Entry costs £5 per person or £15 for a family which includes tea, coffee, cake and a hot dog after the event at The Bush Inn.

The run starts at 10am and the walk at 11am. Entries can be taken on the day.
