    Story

    Recently our best mate Shaun McKinley was diagnosed with a rare cancer called Sarcoma. Since the diagnosis Shaun and his family have been through so much in such a short time.

    As a group of Shaun's friends we plan to raise money for Shaun and his family through this very difficult time by undertaking the 3 peaks challenge (https://www.threepeakschallenge.uk/national-three-peaks-challenge/) in August. The challenge involves climbing Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon in 24 hours, which will be particularly difficult for a bunch of over-the-hill novice hikers ('the hairy hikers'). Nonetheless, this is nothing compared to the challenge our mate is up against.

    As a group of friends we have grown up together (+20 years) through the good times and some bad. However, the friendships and support is everlasting and we will see Shaun through this stage in his life. We love you mate.

    A percentage of the money raised will be donated to Sarcoma cancer charity.

    If anyone wants to get in touch to support the challenge in any way please get in touch, especially if you have a minibus!

    Cheers.

      Update from the Page owner

      Final message of thanks to everyone who has supported this challenge. We have decided to give 10% of the money raised to Sarcoma UK and the rest will go directly to Shaun. We are proud of what we achieved this year as a group of friends supporting our main man in need and are looking forward to next summers challenge for Shaun. Watch this space.... Thanks again, cheers.
