Team ventures out for charity

SUPPORTERS of Bruntsfield-based youth charity The Venture Trust have raised more than £2000 by taking part in the Mighty Deerstalker event.

The overnight obstacle course, held in Peebles on Saturday, saw the team of fundraisers dressed in tweed, tartan, flatcaps, waistcoats and facepaint.

The Trust’s Kathryn Welch said: “It was fantastic to see so many runners getting involved in this brilliant event.

“The money they’ve raised equates to almost 200 hours of one-to-one support to help young people in Scotland.”
