The Benjamin Foundation held the jam-packed event at the Forum on Sunday to celebrate 25 years.

There were arts and crafts and plenty to entertain the children, including spectacular face-painting.

But the cherry on the cake was the flight for youth art installation which featured the charity's iconic buttery logo and 25,000 glazed pottery keepsakes which were available to buy and loaned back.

The Benjamin Foundation helps children, young people and families in Norfolk and Suffolk to deal with challenges in their lives.
