A STUDENT hopes to raise £2,500 for charity by trekking in Iceland.

Sophie Humphrey, 20, who is raising money for The Children’s Society, will take part in the trip this summer. She held a collection in Southend High Street as part of her fundraising.

The former Southend High School for Girls pupil raised £58.83 towards her total goal of £2,500.
