A charity is searching for more grannies to take part in a motorbike ride.

Brainwave Children’s Charity has organised the Goldwing Granny Motorbike Ride on May 31 but is still short of a few silver-haired thrill-seekers to ride pillion.

The event will see 35 to 40 bikes ride with their passengers from Chelmsford to Waldegraves Holiday Park in Mersea for lunch before making a return trip.

Brainwave, based in Newland Street, Witham, offers therapy to children with disabilities and additional needs to help them achieve their potential.

To take part, contact Gerry Gould on 01268 561784 or 07725956014.

Entry costs £50.
