Jon Egging trust children join peak challenge

Five disadvantaged schoolchildren from Dorset are getting ready to take part in a unique test inspired by the Red Arrows pilot Jon Egging.

He died in a crash two years ago following a display at the Bournemouth Air Festival.

A charitable trust set up in his name has challenged the pupils to navigate a route up Kinder Scout in the Peak District.

They will be up against teams from two other schools.
