TODDLERS at a playgroup in St Neots have received some new toys thanks to a grant of £500.

The new toys will be used by youngsters at Tiddlers and Toddlers, a mums and tots group which meets every Friday from 9.30am at Jubilee Hall in Eaton Socon.

A community grant was awarded to the group by St Neots Town Council, allowing it to buy mini motor bikes, toy shopping trolleys, clothes and art materials.

The Mayor of St Neots, Councillor Bob Eaton, presented the toys to the playgroup last Friday.

Margaret Birchall, chairman of the group, said: "We are a voluntary, non-profit making organisation and struggle to replace worn items.

"This grant has made a huge difference to the range of toys offered and the children will benefit for some time.

"Our heartfelt and sincere thanks go to the mayor and St Neots Town Council for their generosity."
