AN enterprising schoolgirl hopes to be coining it in with the help of her chums.

Thanks to the advice of a special adviser, Tottington High School pupil Elizabeth Cunliffe (13), has embarked on a charity fund-raising quest.

She is collecting money for the NSPCC's Full Stop campaign by gathering foreign coins from school friends.

Elizabeth was advised to undertake the challenge by her school mentor, Jenny Matthews. The pair got together to decide how best the teenager could contribute to her school.

The school mentor programme is run by the Education Business Partnership.

Now, Elizabeth hopes her fellow pupils at the school will support her in the fund-raising initiative.
