An incredible young man is raising money for Alzheimer’s Society by walking 850,000 steps in three months.
6-year-old Elliot Hatfield became inspired by Joe Wicks at the beginning of lockdown, and is walking up to 32,000 steps a day.
At the time of writing, Elliot has raised just over £300.
The train-obsessed youngster walked all the way from Southport station to Formby station on the weekend of his 6th birthday.

Elliot said on his fundraiser page: “The past few months have been tough for everyone, but coronavirus has hit those affected by dementia the hardest and continues to disrupt lives. So that’s why I’m lacing up my shoes and taking on Step Up for Dementia. Please donate to support me and ensure Alzheimer’s Society can be there for the people who need them most.”
Dementia is a syndrome associated with an ongoing decline of brain functioning. It can affect memory, thinking skills and other mental abilities. Alzheimer’s disease is the most common type of dementia in the UK. Sadly, there is no cure for the condition.
