PLAYTIMES have been boosted at Dunster Pre-School thanks to a donation from a ruby wedding couple.

George and Sylvia Parsons, whose daughter Emma Salter works at the pre-school, held a raffle as part of their anniversary celebrations.

The event raised £80 for the pre-school and the money was used to buy additional toys and equipment.

Michele Paviour, pre-school deputy manger, said: "We were able to buy a pram, a pushchair, a doll, teepee tents and a vet's set for all the children to play with.

"It was a lovely gesture and their generosity is greatly appreciated."
