Over 100 staff raised thousands for charity by walking up to 30 miles across the hills

Teachers, support teams, leaders and students from The Priory Learning Trust staff raised thousands plus by doing the Mendip Challenge.

They walked or ran 5, 10, 20 or 30 mile hikes across the Mendip Hills in the stunning Somerset countryside.

The TPLT giving was in the top 1% of the Just Giving statistics nationally for June.

TPLT CEO Neville Coles, who did the 30 mile walk for the second time said “This was a wonderful charity event and I was thrilled to see so many of our TPLT staff and students taking up the challenge. It was a brilliant amount to be raised for such a terrific cause.“

The schools TPLT are Worle Community School Academy, Priory Community School Academy, The King Alfred School Academy, St Anne’s Church Academy, Castle Batch School Academy, Pawlett Primary School Academy, West Huntspill Community Primary and East Huntspill Community Primary.
