A TASTE of the Wild West came to Worcestershire as charitable staff at a delivery company dressed up as cowboys and cowgirls in aid of the World Food Programme.

Employees at TNT Express Services, on Hartlebury Trading Estate, Hartlebury, paid to deck themselves out in the garb on and were served up hotdogs and hamburgers in an American-themed day.

Staff also took part in whole host of fun games such as quick-draw "gunfights".

They were among thousands of employees from the company nationwide which took part in the charity event, each picking a different country to base their day on.

Depot manager Rex Stenner said he anticipated the event had raised about £200 for the humanitarian aid agency.

"The day went very well and a lot of the staff in the depot got right behind it with the dressing-up and a few party games," he said.

"It was a bit of fun, but also raised awareness of the World Food Programme among staff."
