Coastguards got more than they bargained for after taking part in a waxing night for charity.

The rescue team from Skinningrove received the complementary beauty session to raise money for the haematology fund at The James Cook University Hospital, Middlesbrough.

During a fancy dress charity event, at The Annendale pub, in Skelton, coastguards Paul Waugh, Neil Sawdon, Richard Easton, along with friends Kevin Wood and Darren Marlow, received a chest, leg and bikini wax.

The night was organised by Tracey Cutts and Nancy Rigley and the event raised more than £370.
