Little boy to walk 40 miles to help raise money to support hospital that treated his cousin

A determined seven-year-old boy is walking from Liverpool to Old Trafford next month, raising money for the Alder Hey Children's Hospital in Liverpool.

Over a period of two days (1st and 2nd April), Harvey Goodman, originally from West Didsbury (now Stockton Heath), will walk the entire 40 miles to the famous football grounds. Last year he completed a 16-mile walk from Stockton Heath Primary School to Old Trafford raising funds to improve his school playground.

Harvey was inspired to walk between the Alder Hey Children's Hospital and Old Trafford to raise funding for the hospital providing support to his seven-year-old cousin, Zak, who is being treated there for an aggressive form of bone cancer.
