A TRANMERE teenager is hoping to help his community by running in the New York Marathon.

Craig Fitzpatrick, pictured, will be running his first marathon - and all the money he raises from sponsorship will be used by Tranmere Alliance to develop projects in the local area.

Craig, aged 18, will be running on November 7. Donations can be sent to: Tranmere Alliance Charity, 225 Church Road, Tranmere, CH42 0LD.
