A man from Newcastle and his three friends from the RAF ran around 92 football stadiums across the country to raise money for charity and help raise awareness of autism.
Aaron Lewis, 31, met Sam Davin, 34, Carl Evans, 38, and Shaun Brian, 34, while they were posted together in Cyprus and were also on a football team together. The four became firm friends and when Sam's six-year-old son, Frankie, was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder in April 2020, they rallied around him.
The diagnosis prompted Sam's family to uproot from their home in Cheshire to be nearer Sam's RAF base in Oxfordshire with the help of the RAF Benevolent Fund which provided help and financial support. And to show how grateful they are, the friends decided to embark on a huge challenge.
