The team of 15 to 17-year-olds from Worthing and surrounding area wanted to raise money to help veterans lead a better life.

Issy Harris, 15, explained: “We chose Care for Veterans as we felt passionately about helping our veterans with a life outside of conflict, and wanted to help the charity to continue its work towards a better life for the veterans they care for.”

The group hosted a quiz night at Worthing Leisure Centre at the end of July. It was a great success and the group has raised £370 so far.
