THEY pulled on festive fancy dress to raise awareness of their own charity.

Staff from Wessex Cancer Trust transformed themselves in to Christmas trees and gingerbread men to promote their fundraising Treasure Trail later this month.

They were at Marlands Shopping Centre to spread the word about the event, which takes place at the Southampton Sports Centre on December 17.

The trail, will include a Santa’s Grotto, goody bags, hot chocolate and mulled wine for the parents.
