A teenager who beat a rare form of cancer was among competitors in a 24-hour ping pong marathon.
Jethro Rainford, pictured, of Cross Roads, near Keighley, was one of ten people, aged between 17 and 64, who took part in the gruelling stint at Haworth Hawks Table Tennis Club’s base, in Keighley Business Centre.
They raised £700 for new bats, balls and nets and hall hire.
Jethro was just 15 when surgeons removed his big toe and part of his foot after being diagnosed with parosteal osteosarcoma – a rare form of bone cancer – in 2010. Within two weeks of the surgery, he was back playing from a wheel chair.
