Reading FC and England left-back Nicky Shorey even popped by to lend his support. The RaW message continues to spread and after a summer at sporting events around Berkshire, the team had a successful two days at Newbury Showground.

Hundreds of Max & Lara books disappeared in no time and dozens of parents pledged to enter the National Short Story competition. Many families made a beeline for the RaW tent having heard about it live on BBC Radio Berkshire.
