Their route will take them around three to four hours and, while the terrain is mostly flat, they will have to clamber over low rocks before heading out on to the sands
Coun Ikram, said: “It is brilliant that these young people are prepared to go out of their way to make such an effort to raise funds for my charity appeal. I would encourage as many people as possible to sponsor the group on their Morecambe Bay crossing.”
