Gary Colley, Keith Cunningham and Fraser Carson help raise cash at BMI Droitwich Hospital.
PEOPLE across Droitwich Spa have been raising funds for Comic Relief.
Residents of all ages have been dressing up and taking on sponsored challenges for the 25th Red Nose Day today.
They have joined others up and down the country doing something funny for money ahead of tonight’s live eight-hour television programme.
The biennial event raises cash for the Comic Relief charity which supports a host of causes in the UK and people living in less developed countries.
Staff at BMI Droitwich Hospital dressed up and took part in a cycle challenge in aid of the charity.
Another fitness challenge was taken on by resident Rob Downes, 54, who rowed a mile for every year of his life.
He attempted the feat at Sanders Fitness Gym, Gaudet Luce Golf Club, Middle Lane, Hadzor.
Workers at Droitwich Spa Dental Practice, Blackfriers Avenue, have been doing their bit by dressing in red clothing.
Youngsters at St Peter's First School, St Peter's Church Lane, were also sponsored to dress up for the day.
