WORKERS have proved fighting fit for charity.
Employees of Barnsley-based manufacturer Flexseal have recently been getting fit and raising money at two different sporting events for two different cancer charities.
Jack Edwards, of the company's marketing department, fought for his charity Cancer Research UK when he stepped into a boxing ring at the Metrodome.
Jack's event was one of a series across the country organised by Ultra White Collar Boxing for people who've never boxed before.
One week later, Glenn Cartledge, general manager of sister company Source One Environmental, and purchasing department staff Liam Cleary and Santos Matamoros slogged it out at the Nidderdale Sprint Triathlon on behalf of the Weston Park Hospital cancer charity.
Glenn, Liam and Santos swam 400 metres, cycled 20 km over hilly terrain and ran five km.
In total, the four Flexseal employees have raised more than £1,000 for charity.
