Five members of staff at a nursing home near Keighley will take part in a canal walk to raise money for the residents’ activities fund.

Organiser Becky Storton and four of her colleagues at Royd Hill Nursing Home, Sutton-in-Craven, will walk a 22-mile stretch of the Leeds-Liverpool Canal on Saturday.

The walkers will start at Silsden and finish in Leeds.

Although Becky said it would be a challenge, she and her colleagues have already raised £500. Anyone who wants to sponsor the walkers should ring activities co-ordinator Sue Robinson on 07727 412380.
