A TEAM of brave disc jockeys from Radio Lutterworth donned fancy dress and blindfolds and took to the water on jet skis to raise money for their station.
The four presenters went along to Stanton Lakes, in Stoney Stanton, and were sponsored to do laps of the lake on the back of a jet ski piloted by an expert. They were cheered on by well-wishers.
Station manager Joe Dodson, who took part, said: “It was a fantastic day. We raised £500 which is most of the money we need to pay for a licence for the station.”
Presenter and technical director Ryan Chamberlain also took part.
He said: “The jet ski pilot did his best to try to throw me off – but I managed to hang on. It was a bit scary not having any control and not knowing where I was going.”
Radio Lutterworth has hosted two month-long broadcasts since it was founded.
