The Friends of Rise Carr College, Darlington, are holding an Easter Fayre on April 5 at the college on Eldon Street.

There will be plenty of stalls and children can take along a decorated egg for an Easter egg competition, with a prize for the best egg.

The fayre runs from 10am to noon and money raised will go to the Great North Air Ambulance Service.

Entry is free and for more information, or if you would like a stall, contact Gary Arnold on 07949-518541 or gary.arnold@darlington.gov.uk

LIGHTS OUT: The lights on Darlington’s town centre clock will be turned off for an hour on Saturday night in support of the WWF’s Earth Hour.

The symbolic event is part of a worldwide WWF campaign to send a global message about the need to protect the planet.

Last year iconic landmarks including Big Ben and the London Eye took part and a record-breaking 154 countries observed the Earth Hour.
