RAINBOWS from the Taunton area celebrated their organisation's 20th birthday at the weekend.

They gathered at Thurlbear Primary School, near Taunton, for an event hosted by the Guiding Association on June 16.

Heidi Kohlman, of the Rainbows, said: "We had a theme of Rainbows of the world so each unit represented a country. We played games and made crafts, which the girls enjoyed thoroughly. To end the day we had a big cake made by the district commissioner Louise Grinter to commemorate the event.

"Thank you to all guiders and assistant guiders who took part in this special day."
