Scarborough Resident Appears in London Marathon

A Scarborough resident has taken part in the second largest road race in the UK.

Andrew Chidwick has been preparing to run the London Marathon after setting himself the target back in July 2021. 

Since then, Chadwick has joined a local bootcamp group and has lost three stone during his training. 

He's hoping to raise awareness of male cancer.

Alongside his training, Andrew has been raising money for male cancer charity 'Orchid' and thanks to people's generosity and fundraising events, he has exceeded his target of £2,000.
