A town centre pub in Great Yarmouth is to hold a family fun day to raise funds for a hospice appeal.

The event at the Troll Cart on Regent Road will be held from 11am on Monday, August 7 in aid of East Coast Hospice, which wants to build a hospice in Gorleston.

During the event there will be a chance to meet Stormtroopers from Star Wars between 11am and 1pm and Andy the Clown will be raising laughs from noon to 2pm.

It will have a bottle raffle stall with a prize every time, a cake stall and staff will face having their legs waxed and their heads shaved to help bolster the appeal's funds.

There will also be a quiz from 7pm with prizes to be won. People are able to sign up on the night.

East Coast Hospice is working towards raising funds to build a purpose built 10-bed hospice with day care facilities for the people from the east Norfolk, Great Yarmouth and Waveney and north east Suffolk areas
