CARLOS Edwards made an emotional appeal to the hearts of the people of Wrexham as he launched MFM's Eggz4kidz appeal.

Last year the generosity of MFM listeners meant that 2000 underprivileged children in the Wrexham and Chester region received Easter eggs.

Launching this year's appeal, Carlos, who played in the Dragon's stunning 6-4 away victory at high-flying Hartlepool on Saturday, asked listeners to: 'Do the things your heart tells you to do and give the kids something to cheer and smile about this Easter.'

MFM 103.4's programme controller, Lisa Marrey, said: 'We really appreciate Carlos' support and hope that having him kick off the campaign will result in the appeal being even more successful than last year.

'All we ask is that when you're buying your eggs this year, please buy one extra and drop it off at our reception in Mold Road, Gwersyllt.'
