HAMPSHIRE fire bosses are revving up to raise £10,000 for a charity close to their hearts.

The county’s fire and rescue service is hosting a Driving Challenge at Thruxton race track with the aim of raising cash for The Fire Fighters Charity.

Participants pay £100 to drive fire engines, double decker buses, articulated lorries and tankers around the track.

Contact Kerry James at the charity on 01256 368840.
