STORM Betty denied a devoted fundraiser the chance to break through the £40,000 barrier for a cancer charity.

Catherine Alexander, of Haddington’s Chalybeate, was due to take to the sky for a wing walk for Macmillan Cancer Support in August.

The latest fundraiser, near Leeds, was postponed due to strong winds.

It has been rescheduled for tomorrow (Saturday); to make a donation, go to www.justgiving.com/page/catherine-alexander-1687944820025
