Year 8 student clocks up the miles with fundraising walk

Well done to Year 8 student Charlie Rice, who completed a 60-mile sponsored walk in the local area over the month of March. In doing so, Charlie raised over £300 for First Newcastle Scouts Group to support their admirable activities.

Local Scout Leader Peter Law expressed his thanks to Charlie for his efforts, describing him as ‘an extraordinary young man’. The money will go to funding a summer seat at the local scout campsite.
