INSPIRATIONAL teenage fundraiser Callum Fairhurst is appealing to Journal readers for sponsorship ahead of a bike ride from John O'Groats to Land's End, in memory of his brother Liam.
Proceeds from the event will go to CLIC Sargent, the charity Liam raised more than £320,000 before he died.

Liam, a former student at Soham Village College, was recognised for his fundraising achievements by Virgin boss Richard Branson and then-Prime Minister Gordon Brown.

Callum's event, named Twycle, was organised by the 13-year-old through Twitter, the social networking site where users can communicate with short messages or - tweets.

Leaving John O'Groats on Sunday, August 29, and finishing at Land's End on Saturday, September 4, seven bikers will relay ride.

Callum, who picked up a prestigious Diana Award – for youngsters who make a large contribution to the community – in June, wants to raise £20,000 from his cycle challenge.
