Members of the Inner Wheel Club of Mansfield and their friends filled 33 shoeboxes with care and fun items to help others at Christmas.

The shoe box appeal, one of the causes backed by International Inner Wheel, delivers presents to vulnerable adults and children across the world in time for Christmas.

The Mansfield group also collected 113 books for the charity Book Bus, whose volunteers deliver books and work with teachers in Africa and Central America to promote literacy.
