Gathered on the banks of the Leeds Liverpool canal, these young individuals are engaged in a sponsored pull of an ancient coal barge named Juno. With its weathered exterior bearing witness to a century's worth of history, Juno is about to embark on an extraordinary transformation - it will soon become a vibrant children's holiday centre. The image captures the essence of youthful energy as these teenagers put their muscles to work, united by a common goal. Their faces reflect both concentration and excitement as they take part in this arduous task that spans over 20 miles from Burscough Bridge to Litherland. The canal water glistens under the winter sun, providing a picturesque backdrop for this inspiring endeavor. This snapshot encapsulates not only the physical challenge faced by these determined youngsters but also their commitment to giving back to their community. By pulling Juno along the historic canal route, they are contributing towards creating new opportunities for future generations.
