The group is looking to raise the total to split between Help for Heroes and Branscombe village play park.

A group of friends are taking on a colourful obstacle challenge to raise money for a pair of causes.

Abi Fuell, Tina Salter, Nicola Bullock, Jo Gibbons and Andrea Bass from Branscombe are trying to raise £1,000 to split between Help for Heroes and the village play park.

They are preparing to take on the 5km colour obstacle rush race at Exeter Racecourse on July 22.

Participants will have to take on 20 obstacles and through the multiple colour and music zones

Abi said: “We decided to split to the money we raise for the village play park as the village children and visitors use the play area a lot.”
