Greeny 3 Peak’s Nathan’s Way

It’s been a while since I scared the natives so I’m excited that on April 30th i’ll be attempting to climb Britain’s three highest peaks as part of The Riff Raff Society’s 3 Peaks 24 hour Challenge in A Mankini.

I’d like to make people smile (& Wince) as the Riff Raff Massif attempt to hike 23 miles and ascend 10,052ft starting off in Scottish highlands at Ben Nevis then onto Englands highest Peak Scafell in the lakes before taking on Mount Snowdon in welsh Wales.most likely braving wind, rain, sleet n even snow not to mention driving almost 500 miles aboard
Warwick Clough’s fun bus.

Why?

Last year Urmston family ‘The Blake’s’ tragically and completely unexpectedly lost their son Nathan aged just 26 to a Sudden Adult Death of Cardiac nature.
For those folk that never met Nathan he was an absolutely gorgeous lad. His learning difficulties never stopped him extracting all the fun that this world had to offer. His amazing family always encouraged him to be his best and he was famous in Trafford for riding out his chopper style bike always  with a massive smile on his face.
Mum Helen and Dad Cess and their boys plan to host a Heart Defect Monitoring Day in Trafford by partnering with a charity called Cardiac Risk in The Young. They plan to put on an event to check 100 possibly at risk young people for heart defects in our local area. Facilitating a day would cost approximately £10,000 but there is every chance it could save precious young lives of those at risk in our community.
It’s a wonderful gesture from a special family that in their own words just don’t know what else to do. They want to make a difference in Nathan’s name.
We plan to take on this challenge whatever the weather in Nathan’s Way with a big smile on our faces. We are more than sure that he would approve even of my tragic 49 year old Mankini display.


Proud to be part of it!

let’s go!!!!!!!
