NORTH-East military families have donated more than 400 Easter eggs in a bid to ensure that every child receives one this Easter.
The 1st Battalion of The Yorkshire Regiment, based in Catterick Garrison collected the eggs and other treats for children who might have otherwise not received an Easter treat.
The unit welfare office co-ordinated the collection and families and businesses donated the chocolates.
Capt Lofty Simpson-Worboys, unit welfare officer with the 1st Battalion, The Yorkshire Regiment, said: "When we arrived in Catterick Garrison we looked for more ways in which to help our new community and we thought this would be a great place to start."
“We’d like to thank everyone who contributed."
