Andy said: “We are going to pitch up a gazebo and we have got coffee making facilities and we have got some chairs and things so hopefully the coffee will keep us going through the night and the next day .

"I am really looking forward to it. I have got quite a lot of people involved so they know where I am and I have got probably two or three people coming down to do the full 24 hours and then a few people dipping in and out.”

He has built up a good following throughout his career and his Youtube channel has reached 30,000 followers.

Cancer Research UK is heading the valuable work that is being done all over the world in a bid to try and find life-saving treatment.
