Harry is in the final stages of completing two marathons - a 26 mile run and a 26 mile cycle - that should see him treble the initial £250 fundraising target he set himself on his Just Giving page at https://www.justgiving.com/page/amy-shepherd-1717083357982 The Year 4 pupil at Garstang St Thomas’ CE Primary School has been chipping away at each event since the start of the month .
Obviously, he’s too young to go out on his own so he‘s had to have people accompany him but he’s been totally committed.” Yvonne Stott, community and events fundraiser for Rosemere Cancer Foundation, said: “Well done to Harry and everyone who has been supporting him. Taking on a double marathon is no mean feat for a nine-year-old when there’s school, football training and everything else. We are mighty impressed and very grateful for such a fantastic donation.
