A POPULAR postmaster has spoken of her delight at being asked to volunteer at CarFest. 

Leslie Francis, and her husband Tim, were approached by the Post Office, to help out at the popular family festival, which raises money for a number of charities including Children in Need. 

The Post Office network supports Children in Need at many events and has raised thousands for the cause over the years.

Leslie and Tim volunteered on the Saturday of the festival in the KidsFest area at the Pudsey stage.  

During the day they shared information about the Post Office and hosted activities for children to enjoy, including drawing and colouring, along with getting to meet Pudsey, The Clangers and Peppa Pig.
