AN ACTIVE group of Chorley Children will walk a gruelling 70 miles in four days.

And the youngsters, collectively known as the Chorley Adventure Youth Club, want local companies to offer sponsorship for their Bee-line Challenge.

The 40 or so children, who step out in August, will start from Chorley and go through to Coniston making a bee-line across Morecambe Bay.

The group hopes to raise £3,000 to replace their Land Rover with a 15-seater minibus. If you can help contact Paul on (01257) 416850.
