93-year-old raising thousands through walking challenge

A 93-year-old Island resident is raising thousands for Noble's Hospital by taking on a challenge inspired by an army veteran in the UK.

Bob Corkish, who resides at Southlands Residential Home in Port Erin, is aiming to walk 100 laps of the whole ground floor of the facility and has already raised over £6,000.

It dwarfs his previous target of £500 - Bob's efforts have been inspired by Captain Tom Moore who's generated more than £23 million for the NHS by walking 100 lengths of his garden before his 100th birthday.

Those wanting to support Mr Corkish can do so by clicking here.
