A 13-year-old boy who has camped in a tent outside his family's home to raise money for charity is set to spend his first night indoors for three years!
Max Woosey’s efforts have provided 15 community nurses to the hospice he was raising money for Max Woosey – known as The Boy in the Tent – has raised £700,000 for his local hospice during the challenge after originally aiming for a target of £100.
The 13-year-old battled chilly winters and summer heatwaves, foxes, slugs and snails – and was once even chased by a pheasant. Rick had received care at the North Devon Hospice, so Max decided to fulfil a promise to his friend and thank the hospice for its work. ‘I have had the best three years of my life. There have been some struggles, but it has been an amazing experience and I have loved it from day one.‘I only set out to have an adventure and raise £100. I hope people see that children are capable of a lot more than people think.’
