A teenager from Holbeach Hurn has raised more than £100 for Diabetes UK.

Jonathan Clark (17) decided to take on a 13-mile run around his home village to raise money for the charity.

So far he has raised more than £100 through sponsorship and online donations.

Jonathan said: “I organised the run by myself but I wouldn’t have been able to do it without my mum Sheila, who cycled the route with me to keep me motivated and make sure I didn’t walk!

“Also thanks to my neighbours who came to the top of our road for the half way mark.”

Jonathan took two hours and four minutes to complete the run.
