Demelza Hospice invite Frozen's Elsa and Mickey Mouse to Disney bash

Hundreds of people enjoyed a Disney-themed party thanks to a children’s charity.

Demelza Hospice Care for Children, which has a site in Rook Lane, Bobbing, hosted the bash at Priestfield Football Stadium in Gillingham on February 15.

It had been planned as a New Year party last month, but had to be rescheduled following an outbreak of a sickness bug.

Food was served and all the youngsters received presents.
