FUND-RAISERS went on a sponsored bike ride without even leaving the comfort of a gym -- and raised £3,000.

Around 30 staff and members of Natural Progression gym, Greenfield Road, Colne, took part in the four-hour static bike ride on exercise cycles during Children in Need day last November.

The £3,006 cheque has now been sent off by staff members (pictured, from left) Melanie Robinson, Tracy Redman, Steve Bradley and Elaine Wearden.
