A DEDICATED Ayrshire group from the True Fitness team are taking on a challenge to raise money for charity.

Staff and members from the gym are gearing up to take part in the 24-hour rowing challenge in aid of Ayrshire Hospice.

The fund-raiser will begin on Friday, September 27 at 5pm in the gym’s Kilmarnock location and end on Saturday at 5pm.

Forty-eight people will be participating and aiming to cover the target of 275,000 metres which was set by the owner, Robert.

The Ayrshire Hospice was established to enhance the quality of remaining life for those suffering from any life-limiting illness, including cancer, neurological conditions, end stage heart failure and lung disease.

So far all team members have raised £3,467 out of their £4,000 target.
