Visiting every Premier League ground in 24 hours
Beci Wood of The Sun is leading an adventurous four-girl team who will visit every Premier League ground in just 24 hours.
Their charity challenge has been set up in memory of Ross Cooper, a close friend who died last year from a brain tumour at just 25.
Beci explains: "Ross was a huge Manchester City fan.
"As a tribute to him, myself and three friends - Nicola Spendlove (Ross's girlfriend), Jay Trisk and Philippa Murray - are going to visit all 20 Premier League grounds in 24 hours this weekend in exchange for some much needed charitable donations.
"All proceeds will go directly to The Christopher Clarke Cancer Research Fund, with every penny going towards funding a research post at the Christie and Hope Hospitals in Manchester.
