The Man With The Pram Raises Millions | Sheffield News

John Burkhill, the legendary “man with the pram” from Sheffield, is turning heads and raising millions for Macmillan Cancer Support—20 years strong, wearing a bright green wig and pushing a custom pram, inspired by losing his wife and daughter to cancer. With over a million pounds raised, appearances at marathons from London to New York, a prime minister’s shout-out, and a star on Sheffield’s walk of fame, he’s become a beloved local icon. Artist Pete McKee, a Sheffield fixture himself, painted John’s portrait—not to sell, but to donate proceeds to Macmillan, calling him as much a part of the city as the train station. Now, with a two-million-pound goal, the portrait raffle is fueling the next chapter of this inspiring story of community, art, and unwavering dedication to cancer care.
