SOAP star Sammy Winward will be putting her best foot forward to raise cash for The Meningitis Trust.

Emmerdale star Sammy, who has an 18-month-old daughter, Mia, and who lives Edgworth, will be taking part in a "toddle waddle" on Sunday, May 13 to help the charity.

Natalie Yates and Michelle Holding organised the event after a friend lost her two-year-old daughter to the disease in 2003.

Natalie said: "I organised the toddle waddle last year and raised £5,000. We want to make it even bigger this year and with Sammy's help, it looks set to be a success."

To take part, call Natalie on 01204 403800 or Michelle on 01204 300818 or visit: www.bolton-toddlewaddle.co.uk
