ENERGETIC exercisers stood up to cancer in style.

Two special jazzercise sessions were held at the Park Pavilion in Harwich to raise money for a national charity appeal.

Organiser Rhia Dalby said she wanted to support Stand Up To Cancer because the disease affected so many lives.

More than 30 people took part in the fundraiser, dressed in bright colours, and some also wore fancy dress to really get into the spirit of the fun event.

Rhia said: “It was absolutely fantastic. It was so energetic and everyone was enthusiastic."

Money is still coming in, but Rhia said the total raised had topped £600.
