THE Arley to Stourport raft race will go ahead this year after a new launch site was found.

The Kidderminster and District Lions Club’s annual event will take place on Sunday, May 13 on the river Severn.

Home made rafts will sail nine and a half miles to raise money for the Midland Air Ambulance.

To enter, visit arleystourportraftrace.co.uk, where there are application forms, rules and details of the start venue and times.

The Lions are looking forward to welcoming raft crews old and new for a fun day out on the river while raising funds for a good cause.
