BUILDERS working in Ebbw Vale swapped their tools for their football boots recently to raise more than £1,500.

Construction firm Willmott Dixon, one of five contractors for The Works development, held a five-a-side charity football tournament at Ebbw Vale leisure centre in aid of the Hospice of the Valleys.

The construction team is working on the multi-millionpound project to regenerate the former steelworks.
