POLICE officers from Quarry Bank and Dudley Wood and youngsters from the area got in a lather and raised around £350 for terminally and seriously sick children.

The neighbourhood policing team organised a charity car wash at Brierley Hill Fire Station on Saturday May 14 to raise money for the Promise Dreams charity.

PCSO Amanda Bishop, said: “The Quarry Bank and Dudley Wood policing team wanted to organise an event where young people from across the neighbourhood could get involved and help out.

“A car wash was a fun way of raising money for a charity that helps so many children who are suffering from ill health.

"The event was really successful, we all had a great time.”
