COUNTY councillors will be doing their bit for Comic Relief today by climbing the steps of Shire Hall.

A team of 15 staff, led by council leader Mark Hawthorne and chief executive Peter Bungard will be climbing the 36 steps a massive 1,075 times.

Their efforts will replicate the distance scaled by celebrities who climbed Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania for Comic Relief in 20009.

Mr Hawthorne said: "This is a great cause and I'm very happy to be doing my bit. Good luck to the team, I imagine there will be some very sore legs in the office on Thursday."
