Four high school pupils from Arran braved icy conditions to raise money for and awareness of the homeless by sleeping out in sub-zero temperatures in Edinburgh last weekend.
Rachel Janse Van Rensburg, Jessica Miller, Lauren Robertson and Loiuse Shankland are all wrapped up in Central Station on their way to a cold night in Edinburgh.

The girls – Louise Shankland, Jessica Miller, Rachel Janse Van Rensburg and Lauren Robertson, all 17 or 18 – had to raise a minimum of £100 each in order to take part, and they returned to school this week to reflect on everything they had learned from this unique, revealing and powerful experience.
