27-mile charity hike by plucky teens for East Lancs Hospice
TWO TEENAGERS took on a gruelling walk to raise money for the East Lancashire Hospice.
Hospitality and catering student Liam McNulty, 18, and Kamil Parzych, 17, who is on a media course, ended up with blisters on their feet after trudging the 27 miles from Blackburn to Blackpool Tower for nearly 11 hours.
The Our Lady and St John Catholic College, in Blackburn, year 12 pupils raised more than £300 for the cause.
Suzanne Hall, the school’s head of media, said all the staff and pupils were proud of their achievement.
