FACTORY worker Steven Greenwood walked 127-miles alongside the Leeds and Liverpool Canal to raise more than £1,500 for Hospice Care for Burnley and Pendle.

Steven, of Harrison Street, Briercliffe, Burnley, completed the towpath walk in six days.

He was sponsored by workmates at Burnley firm Hurel Dubois and the company and shop stewards committee each contributed towards the final total of £1,567.

Steven raised more than £500 alone on his first day of fund-raising.
