Teddy bears are set to descend from a fast zip wire as a historic church hosts a special event.

The Holy Trinity Church in Gisleham is holding a teddy bear fun day this Saturday, August 5.

With fun for all the family guaranteed, the event takes place between 10.30am and 4pm this Saturday.

Captivated children can look on in amazement as their soft and cuddly soulmates bravely descend down the zip wire. Teddy rides cost £1, but there is free entry to the fun day.
