A HINDLEY Green dad will take part in a gruelling bike ride in aid of his children's school. Heavy goods driver Callum McGarrie will exchange his lorry for a bike on July 8 for the Manchester to Blackpool 56 mile long charity cycle ride.

Callum, of Trent Drive, is hoping to raise funds for St John's C E Primary School which his children Stephany, eight, and James, five, attend. He is being sponsored by Body Image Gym, Swan Lane.
