A sunflower day in Dorchester has been cancelled due to bad weather conditions.

As part of Dorchester's summer of sunflowers, the town council had organised a Sunflower Day to take place on South Street on Saturday.

However, organisers have now announced that it has been cancelled.

The organisers said: "We are so sad to announce tomorrow's Sunflower Day has been cancelled due to expected stormy weather conditions.

"While this is a disappointment to many, there are lots of other fabulous indoor events in Dorchester this weekend."

Wet weather is forecast for Dorchester throughout the morning, with a chance of rain continuing through the day.
