Samosa seller fundraiser in 24-hour bike challenge

Manny Singh Kang's other challenges have included completing a 48-hour walk without sleep around Molineux

A man, who sells samosas to help raise money for the fight against dementia, will try to pedal for 24 hours on an exercise bike in his latest fundraising challenge.

Manny Singh Kang, from Wolverhampton, has raised more than £260,000 for Dementia UK through sponsored walks, marathons and selling samosas on matchdays at Wolves' ground.

Mr Kang, who completed his fifth London Marathon in April, will take to the static bike on 29 August.

Other challenges have included completing a 48-hour walk without sleep around Molineux in September last year and walking 195 miles from Wolves' stadium to Newcastle with his son Jeevan in four-and-a-half days.

Writing on a JustGiving page, Mr Kang said there had been more than six years of fundraising and support from "you wonderful people".

After appealing for help for the charity, he added: "Helping the families and friends of those that care for patients, as well as the patients themselves, is at the core of the work the dedicated Admiral Nurses do.

"Every hospital, care home or individual should have access to specialist nurses in this field."

His statement said he would "ride a static bike for 24 hours without stopping", adding: "Not even for a second."

Mr Kang was honoured at the Pride of Britain Awards in October last year.
