Fundraising event celebrates the life of Blood Biker Russ

A blood biker from Kendal will be remembered at a memorial event in Lancaster tonight.

Russ Curwen died last year whilst delivering emergency blood.

Members of the emergency services and the armed forces will take part in a series of games to raise money for the Blood Bikes charity and the Our Blue Light Charity.

They'll be competing at @3-1-5 Health Club in Lancaster in a fun and challenging series of fitness events such as swimming, running, cycling and circuits, finishing off with a run from the club up the Ashton Memorial at Williamson Park

The town's memorial will be lit up Red, Blue & Green in memory of Russ.
