A FUNDRAISING doctor will stop off at St Michaels Hospice tomorrow (Wednesday) enroute to completing a 874-mile walk from Land's End to John O'Groats.

Doctor Colin Skinner is raising money for hospices in Britain and the US and will complete the mammoth trek in memory of his mother who died from pancreatic cancer.

Dr Skinner is also the author of a book entitled Beyond The Setting Sun,' which details his 6,000 mile walk through North America in 1988.

He is expected to be at the Bartestree-based hospice for 11am when he will give a talk about his adventures to staff and patients.
