The town centre of West Bridgford rocked to the sound of the Ashes Legacy Volunteers’ own Samba drumming crew at lunchtime.

Led by Neil McCarthy, who trained the group, the crew entertained shoppers and passers by in Central Avenue during the lunch break of the cricket. Luca from Mapperley was celebrating his third birthday and joined in the fun with his Mum.

Earlier, the Samba drummers entertained the crowds at Nottingham Railway Station, and a tea time they will be performing at the Trent Bridge Inn.
