TWO brothers are set to trek more than 30 miles in aid of a cause close to someone's heart.

Gary and Daniel Shorrock, from Leigh, will complete the Man Vs Lakes challenge in the Lake District area on Saturday.

The course will include running, climbing up 4,200ft of fells and kayaking.

Gary, 50, and Daniel, 33, carried out the same challenge last year and raised £2,500 for charity.

Grandad-of-one Gary said: "We know what we are going into so that gives us an advantage over last year.

"Preparation for me has been harder this year because I suffered a foot injury about 9 months ago, which meant that I had to have six months off training due to physio.

"We are really looking forward to doing the run to raise some money for another charity that will be close to someone's heart."

A crowdfunding page has been set up by Gary in which people can donate £2 for a raffle ticket which will be entered into a draw.

The draw will take place on Facebook Live by Gary and Daniel after they complete the challenge.

Proceeds from the draw will go to a charity of your choice.

Scrap Trade Centre at The Old Anvil Yard on Guest Street, which Gary owns, will be paying for a £50 Marks and Spencer voucher for the winner too.
