Epic 65-mile Wall walk

LONG WALK: the Mahdlo members en route

DETERMINED Mahdlo members have raised more than £1,200 walking 65 miles along Hadrian’s Wall.

The seven Mahdlo members spent weeks planning and preparing for the trip, which involved a week of walking, camping and camp fire cooking. The challenge was the group’s own idea.

Shannon Green (17) said it was something she’d always wanted to do while fellow walker Josh Green (15) said: “I made it right to end — thanks everyone for awesome week!”

Frankie Byrne, Mahdlo’s sports development co-ordinator added: “A fantastic effort. This group has really dug deep. It’s been a huge achievement.”
