A radio pundit and former television host is running a half marathon in aid of a Redbride charity.

Andy Goldstein, who hosts a weekday show on Talksport and presented Soccer AM on Saturday mornings, is raising money for children’s charity Hopes and Dreams.

The charity, in Somersby Gardens, Redbridge, aims to fulfil the dreams of terminally ill children by arranging for them to meet their favourite celebrity, or taking them on a trip to Disneyland, for example.

Mr Goldstein will run the Royal Parks Half Marathon through London in October.

He has raised more than �1,700 so far.
