Staff and children from Landewednack School and the adjoining Little Lizards Children's Centre swapped their usual uniform on Friday in exchange for denim.

Grey skirts, dresses and trousers were left at home in favour of jeans as the annual Jeans for Genes Day was again supported in superb fashion. The Jeans for Genes charity raises money to help the 500,000 children living with a genetic disorder in the UK.

"With one in 25 children born with a genetic disorder we are proud to annually support Jeans for Genes and are delighted to have raised £102 for the charity," said a spokesman for the school.
