A STEETON man battling cancer won a luxury campervan in a prize draw and declared: “It’s one of the most amazing things that’s ever happened to me”.
Chris Riley, 29, scooped the £50,000 Volkswagen vehicle in a venture run by Stump Cross Caverns near Pateley Bridge, as part of a fundraising appeal.
He received a shock diagnosis of stage 4 stomach cancer last year.
Chris – who has been on furlough from his job as a barber in Cross Hills – was told he could live for another two years, depending on how he responded to treatment.
The cycling enthusiast says the campervan win means he and his fiancee, Elle, can now plan to travel the UK together safely this summer.
