St Joseph s primary school s deputy head Steve Hill MBE during his Arctic Ice Ultra Marathon back in 2018.
The plaudits have been plentiful for Oldham teacher Steve Hill since he embarked on his monumental fundraising effort by taking on some of the toughest challenges right around the world.
Included in that is, of course, a trip to Buckingham Palace to receive an MBE and becoming an Ambassador for the Duke of Edinburgh Awards which has seen him appear regularly on the lawns of the Palace inspiring those who have taken part in the award.
Now the primary school teacher, who has founded his own charity, is to be honoured by his home town.
