Danny Miller's 40-mile charity walk

Danny Miller will take part in a 40-mile walk to raise money for charity.

The 29-year-old soap star - who has played Aaron Dingle in \'Emmerdale\' since 2008 - has announced a fundraiser for his favourite charity Once Upon a Smile, which provides emotional and practical support for bereaved families.

He will walk from Manchester to Liverpool FC\'s stadium Anfield on 22nd July, and he is hoping to raise £5,000 for the cause.

Danny wrote on the fundraising page: "I have waited years to be there when Liverpool finally lift the Premier League and now I can\'t even see that in person. But I\'ll get as close as I can with the help and support from my beloved friends and followers.

"I want to combine two thinks I\'ve had taken away from me during COVID-19 - which is the access to our fantastic charity HQ and my second love of my seat at Anfield. So I decided to add them together and try and earn some vital funds for my beloved charity and help us on the road back to some normality. (sic)"

Danny co-founded the charity with his friend and fellow actor Daniel Jillings in 2011, after they realised there was a lack of support for families following the death of a loved one.
