Rescuers searching for a group of missing schoolchildren in the Brecon Beacons have confirmed they have all been located.

The search was launched when 26 youngsters , who were taking part in the Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme, went missing in bad weather.

The teenagers from a school St Albans School in Hertfordshire, are understood to have become disorientated in low cloud and driving rain.

They spent several hours on the mountain and some were thought to be suffering from the symptoms of hypothermia.

But a spokesman for Dyed-Powys Police confirmed that all 26 had been located by rescuers.
