A Bucks woman is walking 10 miles today (08/01) to deliver doughnuts to staff on the children's ward at Stoke Mandeville Hospital in memory of her son, Dylan.
Jessica Mitchell has taken the treats to staff every year to mark Dylan's birthday. Today would have been his 13th birthday, but he sadly died of a brain tumour aged just 8.
As well as taking the doughnuts to the ward, Jessica also leaves presents on her walk for children to find. Her route took her from Buckland to the hospital and back.
She is raising money for Brain Tumour Research, and you can sponsor her by using the link below (you'll need a Facebook account to donate).
