HARDY students went through the pain barrier to raise vital funds for a project that will benefit their local community.
The Prince’s Trust Team programme, which is operated by WCG from Rugby College, sees members tasked with community projects and generating funds to support them.
Team members Dylan, Keeton, Conor and Lucas went the extra mile with their efforts by signing up to have their legs waxed.
The hardy quartet generated money through sponsorship before heading to Anew Aesthetics in Rugby where Carlie and her team went to work on their lower limbs.
Their efforts, coupled with a raffle that was generously supported by a number of local businesses, helped to raise £859.80 – that will go towards the Prince’s Trust ongoing community volunteering work.
Lucas Clarke, from Rugby, was one of the students involved in the initiative.
He said: “Four of us agreed to do something a bit different for charity and considering that none of us would’ve signed up to that for fun, we thought that people would want to support with sponsorship for our community projects. We thought it would make people smile, even if it made us cry!”
