A Co Antrim schoolboy, who’s already raised more than £35,000 with his charity challenges, is taking a huge step to mark one of football’s greatest achievements and raise even more money for a trio of charities.
Ben Dickinson, who last year marched from his hometown of Larne all the way to Old Trafford, is now preparing for a Treble Trek that will take him to Manchester, London and Barcelona in the next year.
The Trek will see the 12-year-old turn the clock back to 1999 by walking 1 x 999 laps around the three stadiums where Manchester United won the Treble. He’ll start at Old Trafford before moving onto Wembley and finishing at the Nou Camp in time for the 25th Anniversary next May.
