In Fareham on Saturday we held our Mascot March.
The weather was kind and lots of people came out to see the good causes of Fareham parading their mascots through the town.
Loads of selfies later, we made a little film.
On Saturday 19th of March is the Fareham mascot march.
A brilliant time for all the family. Come to West Street and support your local community good cause mascots.
The march starts at 12 but we are there from about 11.30 onwards.
Take loads of selfies and tag #mascotmarch on your social media.
Looking forward to seeing lots of you there.
