COULD you join Noddy on a charity walk round Southampton Common to raise cash for a national charity?

The Noddy Appeal, launched by the Arthritis Research Campaign, is on the hunt for mums, dads, youngsters and tots to take part in the three-mile fundraising stroll.

Taking place on Southampton Common on June 15, the event is one of 16 around the country that should raise thousands of pounds for the charity.

Around 500 people are expected to take part, each collecting a minimum of £40 sponsorship.

ARC appeal manager for Hampshire, John Mason said: "Noddy is loved by all age groups, so we'd like to see that reflected in the walks, with grandparents walking with their grandchildren."

For more information on signing up for the walk, contact John on 01329 822 546.
