Two young brothers have taken on Snowdon help raise funds to support the people of Ukraine.

Nine-year-old Henry Coombs and Percy, seven, were saddened by the news of conflict in Ukraine, and decided they wanted to do something to help.

The boys had been inspired after watching reports on the crisis at their school, Hawarden Village, through Newsround on CBBC.

After time to think about it, Henry and Percy decided they would raise money by climbing Snowdon.

The climb took place last week, in the Easter school holidays, and the boys were joined by big brother Thomas and dad Paul.

Arriving early, they started their hike at 7.30am. Dad Paul suggested the Pyg Track as their route, a tough path but one of the shortest.

Proud mum Sian said: "They absolutely smashed it! Two hours 11 minutes to reach the top. Absolute superstars!!"

Overall, the group completed the trip to the top and back down again in about four-and-a-half hours.

Raising sponsorship through a JustGiving page, with funds going to DEC Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal, run by Tearfund, they initially set themselves a target of £50. Including Gift Aid, their total now stands at just almost £1,000.
