Bradley has just walked 100 miles over a month-long period to raise £355 for mums and babies charity Baby Beat to “give back” to the Neo Natal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at the Royal Preston Hospital’s Sharoe Green Maternity Unit, which looked after him for the first seven weeks of his life.

No mean distance for anyone, the challenge of completing the feat was even harder for PNE fan Bradley, who born at just under 30 weeks into mum Alex’s pregnancy, and has cerebral palsy, dyspraxia and hypermobility.

Proud Alex, who works at a nursery in Fulwood, said: “Since Bradley’s birth, we have supported NICU by putting together Christmas hampers every year for staff and families as well as gifting treats on occasions such as Mother’s Day and Father’s Day but this year, Bradley wanted to give something back by pushing himself physically despite his struggles.
