Swindonians helped an eczema charity raise £1,000 by clocking up miles on a giant bike.
The Itch Scratch Cycle Challenge toured the country from North to South last month to raise cash for the National Eczema Society.
Named after the vicious itching and scratching cycle associated with eczema, the over-sized bike stopped in Prospect Place, Old Town, on June 13.
Organised by Eumovate, an eczema and dermatitis cream, the tour covered 1,000 miles which the company then converted into pounds.
Randa Massot, senior fundraiser for the National Eczema Society, said she was delighted to receive the donation.
"The Itch Scratch Cycle Challenge was a brilliant way to educate people on the common problem of eczema and dermatitis, and the fact that it raised money for us was a great bonus," she said.
Eczema affects about one in five children, and one in 12 adults in the UK.
