BRAVE staff from a Burnley pub took part in a series of gruesome challenges to help raise funds for charity.

Workers at The Prairie, Keswick Road, donned heaven and hell fancy dress and took up the Bar Staff Challenge in aid of Rakehead Rehabilitation Centre at Burnley General Hospital.

The event was organised by pub managers Neil and Jean Robson.

Jean said: "As a local pub in the heart of the community, we are always keen to support good causes in the area.

"We wanted to raise as much as possible for Rakehead Rehabilitation Centre through the challenges and a raffle."

She added: "I know our staff were a little nervous about some of the tasks, but they agreed to take part because it's such a worthwhile cause."
