WE have just returned from Snowdonia where 26 young people from Halton completed their gold assessment expeditions.

The participants hiked more than 50 miles over the four days in challenging conditions and can be extremely proud of their achievements.

One of the campsites they stayed at during their expedition were so impressed with the young people that they sent me an email congratulating them.

It is certainly something to shout about. To find out more e-mail barry.selby@catch-22.org.uk or call 07810 158229.
