A year-long community project helping Bolivia's homeless and street children is the challenge awaiting a Billericay teenager.

Jennifer Harley, 18, of Grosvenor Gardens, will fly out to the South American country in July to begin her mammoth task.

The first two weeks will be spent discussing what problems need to be tackled and getting to grips with the basics of Spanish.

Jennifer is now busy trying to raise the £3,000 in sponsorship she needs to make the trip.
