A TEAM of solicitors have been walking the streets in fancy dress in a bid to raise funds for the RNLI.

A total of 19 partners and staff of legal firm Punch Robson were joined by family and friends as they walked from Redcar to Marske and back.

The Solicitors Out Strolling event is one of several the firm has set up over the week to raise cash for the RNLI SOS Day.

Organiser Marie Healy said: "We decided to support the RNLI after talking about it with all our staff and everyone believes it is a worthy local cause that needs support. We hope to raise over a 1,000 through our range of events that we have organised."

Other events the law firm is organising include Silence Our Staff and Saints or Sinners, where staff pay to come to work in fancy dress.
