FEMALE finance staff are getting their figures in shape for a money-raising workout next month.

Last year eight women from the financial services team at Hambleton District Council ran a combined total of 24 miles and raised £800 for charity.

And this year they are being joined by 15 colleagues and friends to take part in the "Raceforlife" for the Imperial Cancer research Fund.

They will be among hundreds of woman running, jogging and walking three miles at Ormesby Hall, Middlesbrough, on June 30.
