Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page, here are a few words on what we are doing and for who......

Six years ago a great freind of ours sadly passed away because of Cancer. His name was Karl Graves who we all affectionately knew as Nev.

Both Brown and I were fortunate enough to know Nev for decades as opposed to years. I knew him from Primary school at High St from the age of four. Brown and Nev meet in the first year at Verdin when we were all placed in the same form.

In the years after school Nev and Brown were house mates, and I managed to stay in touch by making him play football for me and also managed to find him a job at Thomas Hardie Commercials where he remained unit his untimley death.

Anybody that knew Nev would have known what a kind, intelligent, daft, fun loving, educated, berk he was.

He is sadly missed today by all that knew him.

Nevs final days like so many before him were spent in the loving care of St Lukes Hospice in Winsford, this is a self funded charity that needs all of the support it can to keep providing the first class care they do.

Please give what you can, it all makes a huge difference.

We are going to be doing a number of events over the summer in memory of Nev, here is a list.

June 3rd - Manchester to Liverpool bike ride - Brown and his cousin Jay.

29th July - Manchester to Chester bike ride - Bownder and Brown

9th September - Isle of Man End to End bike ride - Brown 

28th October - Winsford 10k run - Bownder
