Fundraiser 'Speedo Mick' reaches quarter of a million pound fundraising target as he approaches Land's End

A charity fundraiser who is walking from John O'Groats to Lands end - in just his swimwear - has entered the final stage of his journey here in the West Country.

Liverpudlian Michael Cullen, who is better known as 'Speedo Mick', has smashed his fundraising target of £250,000.

The Everton fan even survived Storm Dennis to make it to Cornwall.

He is walking thousands of miles to raise money for community projects for disadvantaged young people in Liverpool.

Mick has raised thousands of pounds for various charities over the years and was nominated for a Pride of Britain in 2016.
