Three young people we can all be proud of

Dear Blogger

From Thursday`s Shropshire Star - three young people our community can be proud of.

Teen trio set off on 77-mile trek from Shropshire to Snowdonia in aid of charity

Three teenagers who recently completed their GCSE exams have set off on a week-long trek to Snowdonia in aid of charity.

Sixteen-year-olds SAM MURPHY, DAN GOULDING and HARRY NINNUS began their long and gruelling 77-mile trek on Sunday, carrying all their camping gear on their backs as they navigate footpaths and bridleways through the rugged British countryside.

However, their challenge doesn't end when they arrive, as once they get to Snowdonia, Sam from Baschurch, Dan from Ruyton, and Harry from West Felton will take on The Glyders at an elevation of more than 1,000 metres above sea level.
