Last weekend, a group of friends from the Tameside area walked from Old Trafford, the home of Manchester United FC, to The Project Solar Stadium, the home of Hyde United FC, whilst visiting other football clubs along the way.
They decided to embark on the walk of around 23 miles to raise money for Willow Wood, as they have all known somebody who has benefitted from the Hospice’s services and they wanted to give something back.
A massive thank you to Chris Grimshaw, Lewis Johnstone, Matt Riley, Carl Riley, Jimbo Stirling, Ross Schofield, Alex Charnley, Matt Harrop, Ryan Millington, Gary Sandiford and Tom Marsland.
Tom even travelled up from London, where he currently lives and works, to do the walk.
They have already raised over £3,700 for Willow Wood and you can still make a donation to support their fundraising efforts at https://www.justgiving.com/page/groupwalkforwillowwood
