Members of a Rickmansworth Youth Centre can look forward to a adventure holiday this month.

Conservative County Councillor Barbara Lamb donated £1,000 from a small pot of public money to enable the club to visit a PGL Centre in Surrey.

Members of the West Hyde and Maple Cross youth centre will use the money to pay for transport costs, so they can enjoy a range of adventure activities, from abseiling to zip wires.

Councillor Lamb said: “These young people often complain of boredom and I hope this valuable life experience will teach them new skills and help build their sense of responsibility and compassion for others.”
