A PARTIALLY-sighted Littleham youngster is to embark on a fundraising abseil challenge.

Ben Lupton, a pupil from the West of England School and College for young people with little or no sight, plans to abseil 70ft at Chudleigh Rock on March 21 to raise money for the college.

Twelve-year-old Ben said: "I want to help the school as it means a lot to me and I am really looking forward to the high abseil!"

The West of England School and College will be putting on two charity abseils; one at Debenhams in Exeter on Saturday, March 6, and at Chudleigh Rock on Sunday, March 21.
