PARENTS of children who attend the Playtime Club at Willow Wood Community Centre are refusing to be defeated by vandals.

Theresa Knight runs the group and is determined to carry on after vandals broke into the centre last week and destroyed toys and equipment.

She said: "We want everyone to know that we will carry on as we have been going for eight years and it is very popular.

"The children enjoy coming along so we have to continue to provide this service.

"It is very disappointing when this happens but we can't let these vandals win."

Parents and children of the Playtime Club are pictured showing a united front outside the damaged community centre on Bradbury Road.
