An 87-year-old veteran from Bingley is to receive an award from Downing Street in recognition of his fundraising.
Jeffrey Long, a former paratrooper, raised over £120,000 for The Royal British Legion when his 86-mile sponsored walk began trending on social media.
He is being presented with a Times Sternberg Active Life Award, which recognises the dedication of those over 70 in their work for good causes.
