TWO teams of regulars at a Wareham pub completed a marathon effort to raise around £1,700 for charity.

While six women took part in a continuous darts match, a team of six men embarked on a lengthy pool game.

It was all in aid of Help for Heroes and there was also a raffle and prizes for the top scorers.

Organiser Natalie Flanders said: “I spoke to a few of the girls and they said they would do it. It was tiring but it’s all worth it, it’s a really good cause.

“It went really well, we did the full 24 hours, it was fantastic.”
