A company raised nearly £200 for a heart charity by dressing in red for the day.

Staff at Directa, based in Latchingdon Road, Cold Norton, raised £189.49 for the British Heart Foundation (BHF) on February 5.

The staff took photos and participated in a “Where’s Fred?” sweepstake, organised by the BHF.

The event follows successful fundraising last year, when staff took part in a “Kissing Wall” and voted for the best kiss.

Director Cheryl Thompson said: “We’re advised that more people in the UK die from heart related problems than cancer, so it is a charity we consider important and to give awareness to our staff.”
