ORGANISERS of a family event on the Lickey Hills are fighting back against the foot and mouth epidemic.

What was due to be a wildlife and farm animals day has now become the Lickey Hills countryside event on Sunday May 13.

Attractions include conservation demonstrations, book, plant, bric-a-brac and wildlife information stalls.

The fun runs from 10.30am to 5pm between the Warren Lane visitor centre and the car parks.
