Ex-RAF serviceman Ben Greer set off from Lynn’s Tuesday Market Place yesterday morning on his challenge to carry a pack weighing 100kg for 440miles around the UK – a mile for every man or woman killed during the conflict in Afghanistan.
The 33-year-old, who is pictured being seen off by supporters, is fundraising for five armed forces charities - SSAFA, Help For Heroes, RAF Benevolent Fund, Royal Navy and Marine Charity and the Army Benevolent Fund.
To sponsor Ben, go to www.justgiving.com/teams/TheBigLiftChallenge or text TBLC50 followed by £ and the amount to 70070.
