A Paralympian who scaled Shropshire's Wrekin on his hands to raise money to help other wheelchair users said the achievement felt bigger than his gold medal win.

Mickey Bushell set aside his own chair for the climb of the 1,334ft [406.6m] hill which took more than five hours.

Before the challenge he said it was not too far for a pair of legs but a different matter "for a pair of arms".
