THE work of conservation volunteers in Ecuador will be highlighted next month.
Celeste Hicks, 23, spent ten weeks in South America as a volunteer for the Jatun Sacha Foundation and is hoping to raise money for further work there.
Celeste, from Darlington, travelled to Ecuador with the foundation in July, after graduating from Leeds University with a degree in broadcasting.
The former Hummersknott Comprehensive School and Queen Elizabeth Sixth Form College student wants to do more voluntary work there and is organising a fundraising slide-show and quiz at Darlington Arts Centre on March 3, at 7.30pm
