PICTURES: Let's hear it for teams who cycled 24 hours to buy therapy dog for Skegness hospital ward

Staff at Skegness Hospital are overjoyed with the response to a 24-hour cycle to buy a therapy dog for the end-of-life and rehabilitation ward.

Twenty-four members of the hospital team and six from Frank Wood Funeralcare took turns on an exercise bike in the hospital corridor to raise funds.

They need £3,000 to buy the therapy and have already raised more than £1250. They have also received an offer of sponsorship for the dog from Digby's Pets & Aquatics of Skegness.

These pictures show just some of the staff who took part.
