A WELLING man is travelling 950 miles on a unicycle to raise money for a charity fighting against the slave trade.

Dave Still began the challenge on July 24 and will spend three weeks cycling alone from Land's End to John O' Groats.

Speaking to News Shopper before he set off, Mr Still said: "I'm a bit nervous but quite looking forward to it.

"I'm pretty sure it will be the hardest thing I've ever done."

The 24-year-old teaching assistant learnt to ride a unicycle around four years ago when he attended a circus club.

He said: "I like being able to do something different."

Cash raised from the challenge will be donated to Stop The Traffik.
