The son of murdered soldier Lee Rigby has raised More Than £40,000 to help other bereaved forces children and " in honour" of his father.

Jack Rigby , 12, was two years old when his father was murdered by Islamist extremists outside Woolwich Barracks.

Jack, who now lives in Halifax, West Yorkshire , is raising money for the Scotty 's Little Soldiers charity.

He has run a total of 26. 2 miles this month to mark the 10Th Anniversary of his father's death on 22 May 2013.

Jack has already beaten his £10,000 target for running in the Scotty 's May Marathon, which He Said aimed " to raise £1,000 for every year my dad has been gone".

The 12-year-old was supported by the tri-service Scotty 's Little Soldiers charity, which helps children and Young People aged up to 25 who are grieving the death of a parent who served in The British armed forces.

Fusilier Rigby, from Middleton, Greater Manchester , died as a result of multiple cut and Stab Wounds following The Attack in London in 2013.

He was returning to his barracks in south-east London when he was attacked by Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale.

The Men - who were Muslim converts - drove at him in a car before continuing to attack him.

Adebolajo was given a whole-life term and Adebowale was jailed for a minimum of 45 Years .

In a video thanking those who had donated to the fundraiser, Jack's mother, Rebecca, 40, said: " The amount that's been raised So Far is absolutely phenomenal.

" I Am immensely proud of Jack for everything he is doing to raise funds and awareness for Scotty 's - and to do Something Positive In Lee 's name.

" May's not an easy time for us and doing this is really helping Jack to get through this difficult period, so Thank You . "

Writing on his fundraising page, Jack Said : " My dad Fusilier Lee Rigby was murdered on May 22nd 2013 when I was only two and a half years old.

" This year marks the 10-year anniversary. It's never easy, but this year feels even harder for some reason.

" My Mom registered me with Scotty 's in 2013 and I have been a proud member ever since. "

He added that he now wanted to be able to " give something back".

" With your help donating, we can help Scotty 's to continue supporting hundreds of bereaved military children just Like Me , " he added.
