A local wildlife lover is set to take part in a 24-hour line dance fundraiser this spring.
David Plant, fundraising manager at Secret World Wildlife Rescue, has made it his mission to partake in a challenge each year to raise funds for the East Huntspill-based charity.
This year, he’s stepping it up a notch.
Mr Plant said: "As with lots of challenges, this one starts with a silly idea.
"I was asking people for ideas for a fundraising challenge I could do in 2024.
"A 24-hour challenge made sense, what with it being '24, and as someone who is phobic of exercise, it would have to be something physical."
He added: "So, I'm going to be line dancing for 24 hours, mostly by myself, but I'll have people joining in throughout the challenge".
Secret World Wildlife Rescue rescues and rehabilitate wildlife from all over Somerset with the goal of an eventual release.

The fundraiser will start at 8.30pm on April 27 and finish at the same time the next day.
Donations can be made via David Plant's official JustGiving page, where a livestream of the event will also be available.
