Nurse to take on Sahara desert trek

Ms Bunker, along with four other colleagues, will join a group of 60 trekkers to undertake the taxing nine day hike.
They will walk for seven hours a day, challenged by a mix of flat desert terrain, while also facing extreme temperatures of heat and cold, as well as stinging wind blowing sand into their faces.
Ms Bunker and her colleagues are taking on the challenge to raise funds for Macmillan Cancer Support, which will go towards the building of a new support and information centre at Hilligdon Hospital to be used by people suffering from the disease.
Ms Bunker said: "This is one of the toughest things I will ever do but having worked in this field for 16 years, I really understand the need to be able to support not only cancer patients but anybody with a life limiting condition."
The group, who have called themselves the Ra Ra Girls, hope to raise at least £20,000 before setting off, and have already organised a number of events to help them reach their target, including two dance nights to take place in the coming months.
