World record walkers
School children in Hemel Hempstead stepped out to try and smash a 'walking bus' world record.
Pupils at Lime Walk Primary School were among many in Dacorum who took part in the event on Wednesday, June 17.
More than 170 youngsters completed a 550m safe circuit in the school grounds on Lime Walk in Hemel Hempstead.
Road safety charity Brake arranged the world record attempt - where around 100,000 UK children walked hand-in-hand to campaign against speeding drivers.
It is hoped their efforts will break the current record - of 57,476 -
and raise more than 70,000 for Brake.
According to the charity's statistics, between five and six children are killed or seriously injured on UK roads every day.
