Billy raised more than £3million for the charity in 2021, walking, kayaking and cycling 140 miles across Britain. But when Comic Relief called again, he couldn't resist.

Billy, who lost both his legs in a devastating racing car accident when he was 17, says: “This is the year that took me to the edge. ‘This is the most extreme endurance challenge on the planet.”
