Fundraising sensations the Thong Rangers will be helping to raise cash again this summer - but this time they're keeping their clothes on.

The group from Didcot are urging people to sign up for the Oxford Midnight Stroll in aid of the Sobell House hospice and Fox FM's Help an Oxfordshire Child appeal.

The Rangers, led by Clifford Oakes, have already raised more than £40,000 for Sobell House by taking part in sponsored runs dressed only in thongs. They want thousands of fully clothed strollers to join them on a 10-mile walk through the city on June 30.

The event will start at St Edward's School, in Woodstock Road, before winding its way through the city's streets.

As well as walkers, organisers are keen to hear from volunteers willing to help man the event and join the clean-up operation the following morning.
