Connah Anders with his grandad Alan Davies
Connah, who is a blind athlete in the Great Britain judo squad, did the challenge on Wednesday (May 5).
He said: “My granddad was in the hospice last year for a couple of days before he died. Before that he had help at home from hospice nurses.
“I was in Georgia training at the time he was on the ward so I asked my mum a lot of questions about what was happening. She told me what help he was getting, how he had his own bedroom and patio doors and I realised they were doing a lot.
