A 51-year-old retired police officer from Pembroke is putting his body on line - all in aid of a good cause.

Jeff Davies, who now works as a gym and fitness class instructor at Pembroke Leisure Centre, will be taking part in the 'Offa's Dyke Challenge', a 177-mile charity run and cycle which covers the border between Wales and England in just seven days.

The challenge begins on September 18 and Jeff will be covering it on a mixture of bike and foot - terrain and peak dependant.

He is raising money for the chemotherapy day unit at Withybush Hospital and sponsor forms are available at Pembroke Leisure Centre or from [email protected]">[email protected]

In addition, in October, there will be fundraising classes being held at the leisure centre followed by an evening's festivities with all monies raised will go to the same charity.
