A WORCESTER company is to enter a 'Wacky Rally' to raise money to fight prostate cancer after the father of two company members was diagnosed with the illness.

Fire Label Merchandising, based in Worcester, will be entering a team in the "Barmy To Barcelona 2016, Wacky Rally challenge".

The team will consist of managing director Jim Turner, sales director Sam Turner and James Cook, senior

account manager.

As motoring enthusiasts the team thought it was a great challenge and a fantastic way to raise money for Prostate Cancer UK.

Jim and Sam’s father Jack Turner, who is also the operations director at Fire Label Merchandising, was diagnosed with life-threatening prostate cancer in 2011 and has recently received the all clear.

Yesterday, (Thursday, July 7) the team set off from Fire Label HQ to drive to Barcelona.

Sam Turner said: "It doesn't sound that difficult until you realise the car can cost no more than £300 and we are not taking a sat nav.

"Special thanks to BJH Motors and Sons, Worcester for donating the car from their tradein stock to get us rolling.

"I'm not sure an ACDC themed Rover has ever been over the Alps before but there's a first time for everything."

The banger rally takes in the Swiss Alps, rolling hills of Italy, French Riviera and the Spanish Catalan capital.

Sponsors include Fire Label Merchandising Worcester, BJH Motors and Sons in Worcester, Trumpet Garage in Ledbury,

Motorcare Motor Factors Ltd in Hereford, The Green Dragon in Bishops Frome, the Map Group in Worcester, the Tint Shop in Worcester and the Runsmart in Leicester.
