YOUNGSTERS from Southend Rugby Club pulled on their walking boots to raise money for the homeless.

The under-14s undertook the threeand- a-half mile spring walk on Sunday for the Southend homeless charity Harp.

More than 100 participants took up the challenge walk from Priory Park to Belfairs Park along the Prittle Brook, Greenway.

Walkers included mums with babies in buggies, children on scooters and dog walkers.
