A MasterChef contestant has raised tens of thousands of pounds for chairty since he died after running the London Marathon on Sunday.

Matt Campbell, a 29-year-old professional chef from the Lake District, collapsed at the 22.5 mile mark.

He received medical treatment at the scene from race doctors, but later died in hospital. The exact cause of death is yet to be determined.

Since his tragic death, Mr Campbell has raised over £91,000 for the Brathay Trust, a charity based in Ambleside, Cumbria which runs training and skills for youth and young adults.

His original target was £2,500 but by Tuesday morning, his JustGiving page had been visited by over 6,400 well-wishers, bringing the total to over £91,000.
