East Durham school staff take on five-mile charity walk this Mental Health Awareness Month
Staff at an East Durham SEND school completed a five mile circular walk to raise awareness of mental health and suicide.
Staff at Hope Wood Academy, in Easington Colliery, walked from Nose’s Point, in Seaham, through Hawthorn Dene, as part of the route on May 9.
The academy is part of The Ascent Academies’ Trust, with staff at the trust’s Barbara Priestman, Portland, Ash Trees and Mowbray academies all donating.
More than £300 has been raised so far for their chosen charity, Papyrus.
