Boy, seven, to cycle from London to Paris in honour of late father

Bereavement charity that supported Rupert Brooke's family will benefit from 200-mile trek

A seven-year-old boy will become one of the youngest people to cycle between London and Paris as he raises money for a charity that supported him after his father's death.

Rupert Brooke, from Leicestershire, has already raised more than 11,500 for the Children's Bereavement Centre, almost a week before he starts the challenge.
