Another brave soul prepares to take a leap of faith.
BRAVE regulars at the Flower Pot pub took fund-raising to new heights.
Around 20 of them took the plunge when they completed 210ft bungee jumps in aid of Kingfisher School, Chadderton.
The Higginshaw pub decided to support the special school as the relative of one of the customers is a pupil there.
The sponsorship money is still to be counted and landlady Carol Turner said: “There were a few shakes.
“ I think the the most scared person was my 17-year-old niece — she was petrified — but they all seemed to enjoy it.
“It was a great night and I hope we have raised quite a bit of money.”
