A STUDENT from Chester has completed one of her 'greatest achievements' in memory of her much-loved brother.
-
Chloe Astin completed the MBNA Chester Marathon. Inset, Chloe with her brother Ollie.
Chloe Astin recently took part in the Chester Marathon in memory of Ollie, who suddenly passed away, aged just 24, in a road traffic accident.
Since his death, Chloe, 27, has wanted to raise funds for the Wales Air Ambulance after Ollie spent a lot of time riding his motorbike in Wales.
She started her fundraising for the all-Wales charity in the summer, where she walked 60 miles over two days from Chester to Conwy with her friends Abbie, Holly, Izzy and Ella.
This was followed by completing the Chester Marathon a month ago and now Chloe has raised an incredible £2,957 for the Wales Air Ambulance.
Chloe said: "An air ambulance played a vital role in responding to the emergency that day and ever since then, I have wanted to give something back to an air ambulance service in his memory.
