THE parents of a teenager who died during a caving trip have revealed they will not let his younger brother go on a similar expedition.

An inquest last week concluded that Tadcaster Grammar School pupil Joe Lister drowned after water surged over the top of a nearby reservoir into the cave system in Upper Nidderdale that he and his friends were exploring.

Joe's father Martin said that he would not now be prepared to let Joe's younger brother, 12-year-old Ben, go on a similar outing.
