THIRTY brave souls tackled an army assault course to raise money for Demelza House children's hospice.

The hardy fundraisers took on the training course at the 16th Royal Artillery Regiment, Woolwich.

The course included a 12-foot wall, gruelling rope bridge and half-mile cross country run.

Helped by a team of army volunteers, all 30 participants, aged between 14 and 50, completed the entire course with one team taking just 13 minutes.

A hospice spokesman said: "It was very successful and we hope to do it again next year."
