Charity racers were given a fanfare as they sped through the streets of an Oxfordshire village for the annual Great Shirt Race.

Around 60 people took part in Saturday's rain-hit fundraiser racing prams around Bampton on a mile long circuit from The Grange to the Market Place. Teams of two wore fancy dress and had to stop at eight stations, or pubs, on the route before they finished the race.

The event has been held in the village since 1953. The fundraisers were accompanied by The Amigo Show and Marching Band, from Oxford's twin city of Leiden.

Hundreds of pounds was raised for a number of charities including Spajers, the Society for the Preservation of Ancient Junketing, which organises outings and parties for local pensioners. On Sunday, the band entertained visitors at Blenheim Palace, Woodstock.
