A CHARITY is appealing for volunteers to take a fall to raise funds.
The County Durham and Teesside branch of the British Red Cross Society is holding a sponsored abseil from the Transporter Bridge, Middlesbrough, on May 27.
Participants are required to raise a minimum of £25 sponsorship, and anyone aged over 16 can join in.
Car parking spaces will be available, and friends and relatives will be able to watch from a viewing area.
All proceeds from the event will be used to fund and expand services, including the fire victim support service and medical loans services in County Durham and Teesside
