The Lichfield Cathedral School pupil has already raised more than £600 for NHS Charities Together.

Carleyna tackled tasks based around football and hockey, as well as a running challenge which saw her cover almost 5km in her garden.

A Lichfield Cathedral School spokesperson said:

> “Inspired by Captain Tom, Carleyna asked friends and family for sponsorship and she has raised over £600 which is brilliant.  
>  
> “As a school we are very proud of her efforts.”
