A retired Castlederg GP has raised over £7,000 for charity by completing an 80-mile walking challenge. To mark his 80th birthday, Dr Morris Brown walked four miles each day for 20 days to visit landmarks in the town which reminded him of his long career. He is a committed member of the Church of Ireland in Derg, where he has been a parish reader for 40 years. In his daily walks he visited the local rectory, where his close friend Canon Walter Quill had lived, then past the old and new surgeries in the town where he worked, as well as Silverdale Nursing Home, which he founded and owned for 15 years with his former medical partner, the late Dr Jim Garvey.
