Watch out for Connie the orangutan in Lynton as she runs laps to help wildlife

Orangutans will be helped thanks to a six year old who is running to save their habitats.

Connie Tandridge from Lynton said she read a book about orangutans and is worried about their homes being destroyed to create palm oil.

“Some orangutans are even being killed,” she said.

“To raise money for The Orangutan Foundation I am going to do fun run around my village, 2.4miles, on Saturday, March 6, dressed as an orangutan.”
