Dartmoor ponies help students complete Ten Tors challenge
Three Dartmoor ponies have been helping teenagers with a range of challenging life issues.

Ground-breaking event helps children living with difficult life issues 

Three Dartmoor ponies have helped teenagers with a range of challenging life issues to succeed at one of the UK’s toughest youth challenges.

Organised by the Army, the Ten Tors event sees four hundred teams of six race trek 34, 45 or 55 miles across Dartmoor’s infamously difficult terrain.

The event lasts two days and participants carry all they need to complete the route and camp out safely. A shorter route is available for people who are less able to make the distance.

Milk recalled over presence of veterinary medicines

Graham's Family Dairy has issued a recall for its semi-skimmed milk due to the presence of veterinary medicines in the product.

In a risk statement, the Food Standards Agency said the presence of the medicines, including penicillin, make the milk unsafe to consume and 'may be a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy to antibiotics'.

Customers who bought the product are advised to return it to the store of purchase for a full refund.
