Scotland's Party Leaders Back Cash For Kids Superhero Day

Some of Scotland's party leaders have revealed plans to don superhero pants and pyjamas in support of a charitable cause. The leaders of all four main parties spoke out about their favourite childhood heroes - and their rather less conventional wardrobe additions - as they joined together to launch Bauer Scotland's Cash for Kids' superhero day. Conservative leader Ruth Davidson said she would back the cause by wearing her Superman underwear while Liberal Democrat leader Willie Rennie joked that his Superman pyjamas help to keep him warm when out canvassing. First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said she would get even more done on the campaign trail if she had the powers of her childhood favourite, Wonder Woman. The leaders spoke on Radio Clyde, Forth, Tay, Border, Westsound, MFR and NorthSound to urge listeners to support the cause, which works to help disabled and disadvantaged children.

People in nurseries, schools and workplaces are being encouraged to dust off their favourite outfits and dress up as superheroes on this year's superhero day, May 15, to raise funds for local children.
