Good afternoon,

Lancashire folk have been tackling an array of incredible feats to raise money for great causes across the county in the last week.

Inspirational Martin Hibbert, who was left paralysed in the Manchester Arena bombing, has conquered the summit of Africa’s highest mountain in his wheelchair as part of his goal of raising £1m for the Spinal Injuries Association.

Amateur athletes across the region have also donned their running shoes to take part in a variety of charity runs including Race for Life and Pretty Muddy.

Until next time, 

Colin
