ENTHUSIASTIC young people from across Wyre Forest came together in Kidderminster this week for a "Big Brother" style event.

Fourteen district teenagers were voted into the Kidderminster Youth House in Bromsgrove Street on Monday before the fun and games began.

Inside the house, the teenagers completed a series of tasks over the course of 24 hours before being whittled down to the final three who left the house on Tuesday. Among the tasks to be completed by the housemates was the building of a paper tower and a fruit bobbing competition.

The event was supervised and organised by Wyre Forest District Youth service. Eventual winners, Nathan Watson, Racheal Pritchard and Lauren Roden, earned gift vouchers.

Joy Powell, centre manager at Kidderminster Youth House, said: "The event was a great success."
