KIND-HEARTED bikers brought some Easter cheer to youngsters at a North Yorkshire care home.

Members of York Motor-cycle Action Group (YMAG) drove to the Glen Respite Care Home for children, in Clifton, and to hand over Easter eggs and £150 in cash.

The money will be spent on equipment for the home, which has about 70 residents.

Most have learning or physical difficulties.

Roger Parkes, of YMAG, said: "The home does a lot of excellent work and we wanted to do something to help them out. A lot of people see a large group of bikers and think 'Hell's Angels' or 'criminals', but these people with loud exhaust pipes and black visors are human beings and like doing things for the community."
