One man's 'Walk of Hope'

Veteran's fundraising walk from London to Belfast

A wounded veteran walking from London to Belfast has stopped off in the Isle of Man on his journey.

Robert Maxwell is raising money for rehabilitation charity Let's Do Veterans Support by walking from St Paul's Cathedral to St Anne's Cathedral.

Setting off from London last week, a trio of participants was reduced down to one, with Robert finding himself having to take on the trip solo.

In 2017 the group brought 12 amputee veterans to the TT races with the support of the Isle of Man Steam Packet.

Recently, however, funds have been tight, with Robert even having to sell his own car to take on the 'Walk of Hope' challenge.

He caught up with Lewis Foster as he passed by on Douglas Head:
