MUSCULAR dystrophy sufferers are all revved-up for action after raising £15,000 to buy themselves a new minibus.

They started fund raising last summer and have only just reached their target.

The minibus will transport people with muscular dystrophy to Winsford's pioneering Neuromuscular Centre, which provides training, employment, physiotherapy and information to hundreds of sufferers.

The centre thanked the many groups who donated money, including Vale Royal Lions, Winsford Town Council, Winsford Rotary Club, Middlewich Round Table and Nantwich Inner Wheel.
