A FIRST-class effort by Grayshott sub-postmaster Noel Reidy and his family in Sunday’s London Marathon has raised more than £10,000 for Guildford Challengers.

Noel said: “We all persevered, with Josh finishing in three hours 38 minutes despite being physically unwell at mile seven.

"Ellie showed steel-like determination to finish in four hours 44 minutes and I crossed the line in four hours 24 minutes.”
