Pants days were worth the effort to help cycling team

TINY tots and nursery staff have helped a group of burly rugby players in their fundraising endeavours.

Bizzy Tots Day Nursery in Long Itchington held a two-day fundraising and awareness event in which staff wore pants over their trousers and the youngsters dressed in blue to support The Prostate Cancer Charity.

Phil McGaffin, whose partner Jane Chamberlain owns the nursery, and fellow players from Leamington Rugby Club had chose the charity as one of the five good causes they wanted to raise funds for by cycling 210 miles from the club to the lifeboat station in Anglesea last week.
