A BRADFORD man has spoken about the good experiences he and three others have had while walking to Land's End to raise awareness of families suffering from the effects of Alzheimer's.
Jason Innes, of Bierley, whose grandmother suffers from Alzheimer’s, is one of four Bradford lads walking 379 miles from Bradford to Cornwall. They set off on Easter Sunday.
Jason, who is vlogging their journey on TikTok, has said that he and Lewis Innes, Liam Rayner and Robert Blowman have already raised more than £4,000 for the Alzheimer’s Society.

Jason said on Monday: “We’ve been walking nine days and we reached the bottom end of Wolverhampton. We’ve got another 260 miles and 10 to 14 days to go.
“We originally wanted to do the walk in 14 days but we quickly realised it was going to take longer as we can only do 15 to 20 miles a day due to a variety of health reasons.
“We’re feeling old now,” Jason laughed.
“But so much has happened and we’ve had a lot of good experiences and met a lot of nice people.”
