Duke of Edinburgh kayak expedition

The gold Duke of Edinburgh group left Arran on Monday for their assessed expedition. Initially travelling to Fort William, they began their kayak paddle on Tuesday, taking them through the Great Glen to Inverness. Quite a paddle of four days with more than five hours a day in the kayak. Here are the group before they left with their instructor Martin Wood. Left to right are Rory McKenna, Kirsty Kerr, Tom Mowatt and George and Max Doubleday.
