A South Woodford resident has completed a nine-year challenge of walking the full length of all 11 London Underground lines.

“I started on 10 August 2016 with the Central Line, which took almost 24 hours, and finished with the Piccadilly Line on 31 August this year, which took just over 29 hours,” said Janiv Patel, who completed each walk without sleep, raising more than £23,000 for the British Heart Foundation in memory of his grandmother, Mrudula, and his aunt, Jyoti.
