AN IRVINE cop will be taking on a gruelling special forces-level charity challenge to raise funds for Scotland’s Huntington’s disease charity.
Police constable Guy Jenner, 45, with his son Aidan and brother Robert Henry, will be walking 300km in 360hrs this week while wearing a 45lb backpack.
The trio will competing in the Virtual Special Forces Inverse 360 Challenge to raise money for the Scottish Huntington’s Association – a condition which stops parts of the brain working properly over time.
Whilst there are several ongoing medical trials, there is currently no cure or way to stop the disease.
Constable Jenner said: “My mother-in-law sadly died from Huntington’s disease in 2017. My wife Carolyn Jenner, who was the full-time carer to her mother, took the brave decision to be tested shortly after her mum’s passing.
