With lockdown putting a stop on sponsored 10ks and outdoor events, the 15-year-old, from Cumbernauld, had to be creative in ways he could fundraise for Maggie’s, an organisation which has supported his family after his mother, Geraldine, was diagnosed with breast cancer.
The Our Ladies High pupil has compiled a book of 20 photographs of dramatic landscapes that he discovered on long lockdown walks over the last few months to sell and raise money for the charity.
Here are some of his works.

Harris Carberry was very young when his mum became ill which has been difficult for him at times. She has tapped into some of the amazing services that Maggie's Centre Lanarkshire offers over the last 12 years and creating a photobook to raise money for charity has been one way for Harris to do something that helps both his mum and others.

It's been a difficult year with lockdown and being in the hills brings Harris a great deal of joy. He spent hours walking in the hills and mountains with his dad John over the last year. Photo: Harris Carberry
