Boy, 13, who has spent more than a year camping in garden aiming to beat record

A 13-year-old boy who has surpassed a year of camping in his garden in heavy snow and rain to raise money for a charity tackling homelessness plans to beat Max Woosey’s record.

Billy Thompson, from Pudsey, West Yorkshire, aims to exceed the target set Max who became known as ‘the boy in the tent’ after he spent three years camping in his garden, raising £700,000 for the North Devon Hospice.
