Lung disease girl, 3, walks for charity

-

BY TARA FITZPATRIC­K A THREE-YEAR-OLD who only learned to walk independen­tly in December has raised hundreds of pounds for charity with a 24-mile walking challenge.

Clara Healy, who was born 16 weeks premature weighing just 1.3lb, had been determined­ly learning to walk by herself.

And after having to shield from the coronaviru­s due to having a chronic lung disease, her mum said she has been desperate to get back outdoors.

Mum Sophie Cameron, 26, added: “It was such a shame, she was getting so frustrated.”

Clara, three, will walk four miles every week until she reaches her target. She has raised £900 already.

Money raised will go to the Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity.
