Wisconsin’s mix of cities, small towns and large rural areas has made it one of the most-contested states in 2024.

The charity Molly Ollys, which provides support to children suffering from life-threatening illnesses, has been working with Thomas' family during his treatment.Shelly said the charity has been "amazing".

"We’ve already done loads of fundraising for it as a family," she added.Mr John, who has worked with Shelley for 14 years, said he is hoping to hit a fundraising target of £3,000 for the charity."The thing we’re most worried about is the weather and the differential in fitness levels," he said.

“But it will never be far from our minds why we are doing this."We are very aware of the challenging times that Shelley and the family have gone through."

Rachel Ollerenshaw, from Molly Ollys, said it is "incredibly humbling" to hear the "kind words of thanks" from the families they support.

"A huge thank you to everyone involved at Mangotsfield," she said."We're witnessing general practice being broken. The era of the family doctor has been wiped out by consecutive governments and our patients are suffering as a result."

The action being taken does not count as formal industrial action and therefore the union can carry on with the work-to-rule indefinitely.Louise Ansari, chief executive of patient watchdog Healthwatch England, said she was worried about the action, given the difficulties patients already face getting access to GPs.

“Without proactive communications to patients, the work-to-rule action could exacerbate access problems or even deter people from seeking help altogether.“Patient safety must be paramount. We strongly urge all GP practices to inform their patients if and when they are taking part in the action and where to go for alternative help.
