Eight bunnies found new homes and dozens more rabbits were helped at a summer fair.

Warren Lodge Rabbit Rescue in Bowers Gifford played host to more than 150 people on Saturday. It raised £350 to help the animals.

Organiser Lesley Collins said: "It went very well. We rehomed eight rabbits and also raised a good amount of money.

"We will use it to clear our vets bills and when we have filled our hay loft and stocked up on rabbit food, the rest is being used to buy an animal rescue van in our Bunnylance appeal."
