Steph and Milly Marley, from Elvington, are undertaking the challenge for the National Kidney Federation (NKF). “When my daughter Milly was born, she developed acute kidney failure due to birth complications,” Steph said. “We very nearly didn’t get to keep our beautiful baby girl.” According to the Renal Registry, nine children in every million under the age of 16 start long-term treatment for kidney failure. “Milly is a fighter and with the amazing care she received from the doctors and nurses, she made it. “She lived with chronic kidney disease until she was 15 and she needed a transplant.” Milly received a kidney transplant in December 2018 after her dad was found to be a match, and after a year of post-transplant complications and prolonged hospital stays, is now stable and well and the York College student is looking forward to starting university later this year.

A Second World War pillbox looks to be in danger of destruction as erosion has left it just a few feet away from the cliff face.
In a stark reminder of of the rate of coastal erosion along parts of the north Norfolk coast, it is feared the historic structure close to Happisburgh Lighthouse will be gone within a year or two as ever more clifftop crumbles into the sea.

A stern warning has been issued after two people were seen climbing a partly collapsed cliff on the north Norfolk coast.
Bacton Coastguard station officer Pete Revell said he was speechless after seeing the photos - taken on Friday, January 8 - of the pair attempting to scale soil fallen from the roughly 10 metre (30ft) high cliffs between Bacton Ostend and Happisburgh.

Mr Revell said: The cliffs are so unstable at the moment and we re having a lot of cliff falls happening - especially in that area, which is more unstable than anywhere else.
