A 90-year-old woman raising money by climbing the stairs in her home has said the amount of money raised has been "amazing" as donations surge past £200,000.
We told how Margaret Payne, from Ardvar, Sutherland, was inspired by 99-year-old Captain Tom Moore, who has raised more than £20 million for the NHS.
The 90-year-old pledged to climb the height of Suilven, which is expected to require 282 trips up the stairs.
Margaret told BBC Breakfast: "It's been amazing, I can't really believe it's true."
Her daughter Nicky McArthur, who is staying with her mother during the lockdown period, said the generosity shown was "extraordinary".
Margaret also said her reasons for stepping up and raising funds for the health service were threefold.
She said: "(Captain) Tom partly - I think it's amazing what he's achieved.
"My husband died at Christmas time, with us here in the house, and he was looked after so well by the National Health Service, it's by way of a little thank you."
Margaret added: "It's also for all our nursing staff, the doctors and the nurses, it's a thank you for that."
She also said it was a "disgrace that we weren't more prepared" for the coronavirus outbreak.
Including gift aid, Payne had raised more than £211,000 for the health service in her climb, as of Saturday morning.
She added that she expects the 282 trips up the stairs to take her until the end of June to complete.
