A kind-hearted three-year-old from Worcestershire has raised more than £200 for Children in Need after walking four miles.

Teddie Goddard, from Pershore, decided to turn his love of the outdoors into something that could support other children who are less fortunate.

After spotting an advertisement for BBC’s Countryfile Ramble – Teddie turned to his mum Lizzie to ask if it was something he could do.

Proud mum Lizzie Goddard, said: “Teddie is such a caring little boy and loves being outdoors with me.

“We thought it would be a good idea to raise money and help children and young people across the UK rebuild their lives.

“We originally decided three miles because of his age, he loved it so much we have exceeded this and now at four miles – we were keen to do more.”

Not only did Teddie get some fresh air while out on his daily walks for Children in Need, he also spotted some familiar faces – despite not bumping into Pudsey!

“On his walk at the back of the bridges Teddie saw a dear roaming about and thought it was Rudolph the reindeer, and he also could see his granddad in his allotment while on his ramble,” said Lizzie.

“He loved climbing trees and moving broken branches and jumping in puddles.

“He had lots of fun while out and about.”

Teddie’s walks included Tiddersley Wood in Pershore, Pershore bridges towards Wick and back of the allotments in Pershore and the Stoulton Wood area.

Lizzie continued: “I am so proud of Teddie, as at only three-and-half, he is thinking about other people and wants to help them and make them better.

“He is a caring little boy and always thinks of others.

“The money raised will help children across the UK have a better life and support network.”

Teddie also has a GoFundMe page that donations can be added to at: https://bit.ly/3XvUreO

The annual BBC One charity night has raised more than £35m so far - slightly down on last year's £39m.

Lewis Capaldi, Graham Norton, Joe Wicks and Diversity were among the stars who helped raise millions for this year's Children in Need appeal on Friday night (November 18).

Celebrity fundraising efforts included Wicks walking a 30-mile ultra-marathon and raising more than £500,000.

Comedian Jason Manford, who presented the show for the first time, said it was "astounding" and thanked the public for their donations to "the millions" of children who face a "tough winter ahead".
