Story

On the 18th September, Eddie, Gaz, Jonathan and John will be
tackling the 3 peaks pub crawl.

This involves climbing Snowdon, Scafell Pike and Ben Nevis
and cycling the 500 miles or so between visiting the highest pubs in Wales (Sportsmans Arms), England (Tan Hill Inn) and Scotland (Wanlockhead Inn) along the way.

As a team we have tackled a few tough challenges over the
years including cycling Tower to Tower (Blackpool to Paris) in five days and the Alternative Triathlon, which included kayaking the length of Windermere, cycling to London and running the London Marathon but its been six years since our last adventure.

As many of you know my best friend Matt Wallbank sadly passed away suddenly in his sleep whilst we were in London for a wedding. 13 years on and the memories and shock of that day still lives with many of us. 

Since Matt passed away from Sudden Adult Death his friends and family have raised just short of £17,000. The aim is to get that target to £20,000 and this event will hopefully go some way to helping us reach that. Hopefully this will help other families and friends to not have to suffer what we did that day and beyond.

Every week in the UK at least 12 apparently fit and healthy young people die of undiagnosed cardiac conditions. With your donation, CRY can reduce the frequency of young sudden cardiac death (YSCD) by working with cardiologists and family doctors to establish good practice and appropriate screening facilities to promote and protect the cardiac health of our young. By supporting CRY you will help save young lives from these potentially fatal cardiac conditions. See how your support can help by visiting www.c-r-y.org.uk
