A team of motorcyclists have thanked the Kings Langley community for their support after they collected Easter eggs and delivered them to children in hospital.
The Dacorum Motorcycle Riders (DMR) are made up of local motorcyclists who support charities throughout the year.
On Saturday, April 12, the team set off from The Hop Tap pub in Hemel Hempstead before heading over to Watford General Hospital via The Saracen’s Head pub in Kings Langley.
They collected more than 400 Easter eggs on the route including a large number from Kings Langley. They were then taken to children at the hospital.
Jon Andrews, who started the annual Easter egg rides in 2019, told Kings News that it was a bumper year.
He said: “It was a fantastic day and we’re delighted to have got more than 400 eggs delivered to children in hospital.
“The success is thanks to the support from the Kings Langley community with the number of eggs collected from The Saracen’s Head helping us to such a fantastic total. Peter Dillingham and the staff were brilliant and we are really grateful.
“We did the ride dressed as bunnies and we were met at hospital by Emily Theobald, from West Herts Hospital Charity, who was also dressed as a bunny, which just added to the occasion.
“The children were delighted to see us in our costumes and receive the eggs.”
