Heritage vehicles were on show at the first event of its kind at the popular tourist resort.

Collette Richardson, spokesman for Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Rutland Air Ambulance, said: “We raised a over £1500. I’d just like to say a huge thank you to everyone who attended on the day, bringing along their classic car or joining in with their family for a family day out. Everyone who attended was able to raise a large proportion of what is needed to fund a lifesaving mission.”

Next year’s show will take place on June 24.
