EASTER eggs and cuddly toys were delivered by bikers in fancy dress to sick children in a respite centre.

Some 25 members of Oxford’s Caldariun Motorcycle Club dropped off the treats to youngsters at Viking House in Saxon Way, Headington, on Saturday.

Severely disabled Sarah Avery, 15, received a teddy and a chocolate egg from club member Maz Russell.

Mum Ann Avery, 39, of Blackbird Leys, said: “It is absolutely brilliant and it's really nice of them to do it. She really appreciated it.”

Club member Christine Earl said: “We have been doing it for the past 11 years now.

“The kids love seeing the bikes. They can climb on to the bikes and sit on them.”

The motorcyclists are handing the treats to about 500 disadvantaged people around Oxfordshire.
