‘Children can make a difference’: Devon boy ends three-year charity camp out

Max Woosey, 13, is looking forward to being known as more than the boy in the tent' after raising huge sum for local hospice

When he began his camping adventure, Max Woosey imagined he would spend a few weeks sleeping in his new tent and raise a few hundred pounds for a good cause.

Three years on, after surviving fierce winds, sub-zero temperatures and an awful lot of rain, 13-year-old Max's efforts have earned more than three-quarters of a million pounds for a hospice and given him unexpected fame - but he has finally decided it is time to put a solid roof back over his head and clamber into a proper bed.
