A TRIO of intrepid youngsters showed age is no issue by scaling the twelve highest peaks in England to raise money for their school.

Brother and sister Joseph Green, six, and Seren, nine, were joined by Grasmere Primary School friend Noa Calman for the epic challenge which has raised more than £1,200 so far.

The challenge saw them take on more than 11,000 metres and 70 miles - climbing peaks including Scafell Pike, Helvellyn and Skiddaw - in just 12 weeks.

The trio were joined by either Joseph and Seren's dad Christopher, or their mum Claire.

Claire said: "We are so proud of them. A huge thanks to everyone who has supported their cause. The money they have raised will hopefully make a big difference to Grasmere School for children there both now and into the future."
