War veteran Mark Harding is another week closer to completing his challenge. 

He is currently in the south of England and is over halfway through his journey. 

Mark was seriously injured over a decade ago when he was serving in the military in Afghanistan. 

He was told he'd never walk again but over the past few years has regained some of his mobility and spends his time fundraising for charities close to his heart. 

At the moment he is walking across the country from John O' Groats to Lands' End to raise money for Scotty's Little Soldiers, a charity that supports children who have lost a parent due to conflict. 

Mr Harding said: "It's been going good, every day I look at the map and see the progression of where I am. 

"It's blown my mind how far I've come and so many people are surprised at how far I've come and it just shows what I'm capable of doing.  

"I've had Darren Wilson an ultra runner, Councillor Terry Maguire, and Andrew Powell from Healthier Heroes come along, and it's amazing how much support that I'm getting. 

"A councillor also came out with people from the community to walk with me for the full day."
