A BEAUTY day raised £220 for charity WellChild as part of a local woman's fundraising efforts for the London Marathon.

Leanne Rice, a beauty therapist at Heavenly Beauty Salon in Okehampton, teamed up with friends Annabelle Balsdon, Charlotte Draper and Jessica Beagent and gave discounted treatments at the salon.

All proceeds went to the charity which helps sick children and their families in the UK.

Leanne has now reached and surpassed her £2,000 target, having so far raised around £2,500.

Leanne expressed thanks to all those who helped out on the day, as well as all the customers who came in for treatments.
