STUDENTS at Alleyn Court Prep School star in a heartfelt video for the song You Are Not Alone, which will be used in this year’s Comic Relief.

The youngsters performed the song for a video which was filmed by pupils in and around the school.

All the children in the Great Wakering school, from two-and-a-half up to 11, performed the song, which raises awareness about mental health.
