NEW College workers will be digging out their trainers this week and persuading colleagues to part with their cash as they begin training for Race for Life.

The fund-raiser, in aid of Cancer Research UK, takes place at Sanders Park, Bromsgrove on Sunday, July 27 and is a 5km walk or run, as well as a chance for women to raise thousands of pounds for the charity.

Staff from the college's finance department will be supporting each other as they train and raise money for the event.
