Award for Pet Coffins

A team of school pupils in the UK have won a business award for making coffins for pets. The pupils, from Buttershaw High School, Bradford, set up their own company to make the wooden coffins. The teenagers charged between £7.99 and £11.99 for each one, reports The Times. Their initiative has won them £1,200 and the title of Best Young Enterprise in West Yorkshire.
