A picture of Austin Hill with his arm around his dad, Mark, on holiday in Greece in 2021 captures the love between them. It was taken just two weeks after Mark had been diagnosed with bowel cancer.
Tragically, Mark did not recover from his diagnosis. The teacher, who worked at the Radclyffe School in Chadderton, passed away on December 30 last year.
But inspirational Austin has been determined to pay tribute to his father and say thank to you to those who helped him. Every day this month, the seven-year-old has walked a mile or more in memory of his dad to raise funds for the hospice where he spent his final days.
