Who Cares Wins hero, 9, raises £1,500 after completing the National Three Peaks Challenge in memory of his brother
A SUN Who Cares Wins hero of nine has completed the National Three Peaks Challenge in memory of his brother.
Harry Byrne won our Young Hero award last month for his charity fund-raising efforts.
Brother Reuben died aged two in 2021 after he was born with a genetic syndrome so rare there are only 20 known cases.
Harry raised £1,500 by climbing Scafell Pike, Ben Nevis and Snowdon despite Storm Babet.
Harry said: “It was so cold on the top of Ben Nevis in storm Babet.
"Daddy had to hold onto me to make sure I didn’t get blown over.

"I took a picture of Reuben with me in my pocket and looked at it when things got hard.
“It wasn’t easy but Reubear had a much bigger challenge and he didn’t quit.
"I saw robins a lot during the weekend and started calling them ReuRobins as I think they were messages from him to keep going.”
Harry’s challenge adds to the 16,000 miles he has walked to raise over £90,000 for charities who looked after his “Reubear”.
