Lake lappers raise charity cash
A GROUP of youngsters walked two and a half miles around the lake in Wilton Park to raise money for Christian Aid.
Members of My Club Youth Group, who meet at St Saviour's Church, Brownhill, met at the park in Bradford Road to take part in a sponsored walk around the lake.
The 13 youngsters spent an hour walking 10 laps to raise money for Christian Aid.
Group leader Margaret Gill said the group all enjoyed themselves and took advantage of the good weather.
She said: "The walk went very well, with some of the group walking 15 laps. It was a lovely evening.
"We don't know how much we've raised yet, but are certain we've topped £200."
The group meet at the church in Brookroyd Lane every Thursday at 7pm.
