AN Easter egg hunt with a difference has been launched by St Luke's.

The hospice is appealing for enthusiasts to knit or crochet little woolly Easter chicks, bunnies and baskets and for wellwishers to donate creme eggs to fit inside.

Hundreds were sold in schools, shops and businesses last year raising vital funds.

Hospice community fundraiser Mandy Shaw said: "Once your animals and baskets are ready to go, you can drop them off at St Luke’s Hospice or one of our shops."
