DAME Esther Rantzen will host a special lunch in Ferndown next week.

The NSPCC's autumn lunch will take place at the Dudsbury Golf Club on Monday from 11am.

The presenter and founder of Childline and The Silver Line will give a talk about her life in broadcasting. She will also host a question and answer session with Cherie, who was abused by Jimmy Savile.

Guests at the sell-out event will also be able to shop at a range of stalls and participate in a raffle and an auction.

All proceeds will go towards the NSPCC's Childline service.
