An inspiring father who lost his daughter when she was only 27 is taking on the London Marathon in her memory this weekend.
Ian Rankin, from Macclesfield, is set to tackle the gruelling 26-mile course this Sunday to raise money for Epilepsy Action in honour of his late daughter, Carla.
Carla passed away in 2014, aged just 27, as a result of her epilepsy, and in her memory, Ian has committed himself to this challenge to support the cause close to his heart.
