VOLUNTEERS from the Prince's Trust took to the streets in fancy dress to boost funds for Romanian children.

The group, who are on the trust course at Stockton Riverside, embarked on a nine-and-a- half-mile walk from Bishop Auckland to Brandon to raise cash towards a three-week project in Romania.

Ten members of the group will travel to Romania at the end of this month to help with repairs to a school.

They will take stationery and other goods with them for the children.

Gillian Hutchinson, of the Prince's Trust, also appealed for donations of money or stationery to help the group. She can be contacted on (01388) 664211.
