A 10-year-old boy from Harrogate is set to take on an epic cycling challenge to fundraise for a charity close to his heart.
Henry Connolly had a vital heart operation several years ago and is now set to cycle 30 miles to support the Children's Heart Surgery Fund.
The charity provides vital support to children like Henry who go through heart surgery and their parents.
Henry said:
“I have never cycled more than 8 miles before, and I have only done that once!
“Please donate to help children who need help and surgery as I did.”

Henry and his dad, Oliver, will be cycling from York to Selby and back.
The journey will take them from York station along the river Ouse, through York racecourse and out to York college.
From there they will cycle along the 'York Solar Path' where there will be a scale model of the solar system, starting with the sun, passing all the planets to Pluto which is located at Riccall.

Henry is hoping to raise £2,000 for the Children's Heart Surgery Fund.
