THE Anthony Nolan Trust is looking for nine more people to take part in its survival challenge.

The event will start on Sunday, September 25, at an hotel before departing to an uninhabited island for five days.

Everybody taking part will receive a trophy and there will be an overall award for the best all rounder.

During the challenge the 24 volunteers will be put into teams and former marine Nigel Startin will teach them all there is to know about survival techniques.

Sharon Wells, area manager of The Anthony Nolan Trust, said: "Having held three very successful events in the past year I am very confident everyone who enters this event will remember it for a long time afterwards.

"Everyone who has been on these survival weeks were absolutely overwhelmed with everything they learned.

"We are hoping to raise over £25,000 from this event, we have only nine further places available so you will need to call now."
