A determined young Dumbarton kickboxer who was struck down with meningitis, septicaemia and a stroke as a baby is set to take on a gruelling hillwalk challenge to raise funds for his kickboxing school.
John Sutherland, seven, was left visually impaired with paralysis of his right side, hearing problems and language delay disorder after falling critically ill before his first birthday.
However, the boxing-mad youngster refused to let that stop him from achieving his dreams, thanks to Alexandria Kickboxing Academy.
