A 75-year-old is taking on the London Marathon for three charities that support vulnerable people and unpaid carers in Richmond.

Remo Grasso is fundraising for Homelink, Crossroads Care and Integrated Neurological services who supported his mother.

He is running the 26.2 miles in April having run marathons before in New York and London.

Remo says it’s important to highlight the work done by these charities.
