It is organised by the Type 1 diabetes charity JDRF, along with other charities.

Sadie Munro, of JDRF, said: “Nine local charities have come on board to help make this event happen,

so we’re set for a super day that will raise thousands for local causes.

"We’re encouraging people to dress up as their favourite superhero too, so whether you are an Avenger, X-Men or Justice League fan all are welcome to take part and be heroes.”
