A HAMPSHIRE businessman is taking on the Great South Run for charity.

Andy Miles, sales director at Whiteley-based Peach Telecom, will be one of 25,000 running the ten-mile race on October 26 and is raising cash for Autism Hampshire.

He will be accompanied on the run in Portsmouth by his wife Liz.

The couple decided to raise money for Autism Hampshire because a family member has recently been diagnosed with autism.
