Fred Hepburn, who used to run the Hodcarrier in Leamington Road, Whitnash, has been walking from that pub to Murphy's Bar during lockdown with the aim of covering 500 miles.

He is collecting donations along the way in a wheelbarrow and has also raised almost £2,000 for the cause through a JustGiving page he set up.

Fred is pictured with Kevin Murphy of Murphy's Bar who made a generous donation.
