I have taken on the 'Peak the Reek' challenge with friends from the WIH business network to raise funds in support of Fréa and the work it does to help vulnerable Irish people across the North of England. In September I will be travelling to Co. Mayo on the west cost of Ireland to climb the 2,500ft to the summit of Croagh Patrick in memory of my late Father Tom McManus who did the same 20 years ago. Dad accepted the challenge and agreed to dress as a leprechaun for one significant sponsorship offer!
