AN annual event celebrating getting active in the Mendip Hills National Landscape is set to return, offering a packed weekend of outdoor challenges and activities.

The Top of the Gorge Adventure Weekend, taking place from 6-8 June, invites the whole family, participants, and spectators to engage with the dramatic landscape around Cheddar Gorge.

Set against the backdrop of England's largest gorge, the weekend features a diverse programme including the Cheddar Gorge Challenge, Mendip Murmuration, Lakes and Lumps cycling events, the Gorge Explorers hiking trail, and various trail running routes.

Alongside the physical challenges, there are opportunities for relaxation, learning, and fun daytime and evening activities.

IS truth sometimes stranger than fiction? Quite possibly. Could you write it? A ten-year-old boy from the Sudan, speaking no English, arrives in London in 1981.
