PEOPLE in the Chard, Ilminster and Crewkerne area are being invited to dress up as their favourite superheroes as part of a fundraiser for the St John Ambulance.

You can put on a comic book T-shirt or a full-on fancy dress costume for a sponsored walk or a night out on the town during September, St John supporters are also taking part in Superhero Skydive parachute jumps across the South-West in June.
