ST Mary's Convent School pupils took part in St Richard's Hospice's Flourishing Fivers scheme - in which they were given £5 each and asked to turn it into even more cash for the charity.

The year eight girls grew their £5s into £1,267.98 with a range of activities which included making cards, jewellery, doing housework, a sponsored walk, and helping at a birthday party. This is the second year the Flourishing Fivers initiative has been running in Worcestershire, raising over £5,000 in total.
