A DAY of adrenaline-fuelled action will raise money for The Old Palace Care Centre in Ely.
Sue Ryder Care is calling on anyone who enjoys outdoor adventure to take part in a fund-raising event at the Go Ape site in Thetford Forest in March.
Participants will run the gauntlet of a high wire forest adventure course which includes rope bridges, Tarzan swings and zip slides.
Beth Rigg, fund-raiser for Sue Ryder Care says, "It's a fantastic day out for you and your family, friends or why not take the opportunity to do something different with your colleagues, it's a real experience, it's exhilarating and great fun!"
Volunteers, who will collect sponsorship for the challenge, will face a total of 36 obstacles on Sunday, March 4.
The money raised will send two Old Palace residents on an action-packed activities holiday in the Lake District.
