School raises hundreds for West Norfolk brain tumour charity

Students of a Lynn secondary school have raised hundreds of pounds for a prominent brain tumour research charity.

Mervyn Wiles, a trustee of the Red Wellies charity set up in memory of his daughter Lisa, received a donation of £809 when he visited the King's Lynn Academy last Friday.

The money was raised during a series of events held by year 11 students at the school.

Mr Wiles, pictured above right, with head girl Maise Hancock, vice-principal Elanor Westbury and head boy Lewis Dixon, thanked the school for their support.
