Students prepare for adventure to Gambia

Tue, 15 Feb 2011

Six teenagers from QE2 High School in Peel are about to set off on an adventure to the Gambia.

The pupils won the trip after the school raised over £27,000 for charity.

The year 10 and 11 pupils and their teacher leave the Island today to travel to the Gambian capital Banjul.

Once in the poverty stricken country , they will work with the charity Concern Universal which focuses on helping the local people to help themselves.
