A firefighter is calling on fundraisers from across the north-east to take part in a unique challenge.

Peterhead firefighter William Burtt is encouraging people to take part in a charity fire engine pull to raise “as much as possible” for the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service Family Support Trust on Saturday, May 9.

He said: “I’ve participated in something like this before and I wanted to organise this as something the whole community can be involved in as well as raise money for charity.”

Teams of six will go head-to-head as they pull a 13 tonne engine over a 25m course in the fastest time. It is hoped up to 24 teams will take part.

The event is run using a mini league stage, followed by the top two teams from each league going to a knockout for the final round.

It costs £30 per team of six, and entrants must be over 18. All team members will be required to complete a medical fitness form and injury form on the day.

There will be prizes for first and second place as well as for the fastest team pull from the league stages.
