Uplifting event for baby charity
Families were able to meet their favourite Disney characters while having a buffet style cooked breakfast. The event was organised by TinyLife - Northern Ireland’s premature baby charity.
The characters - members of locally-based performing arts company Uplift - proved a huge hit with the children.
