Yorkshire Three Peaks Triumph for 15 lads and hockey dog
Huge respect and congratulations to our THC band of brother (and Dougal) who covered 24 miles and over 5000 vertical feet in 9 1/2 hours and have raised over £4000 + Gift Aid for the British Heart Foundation. This was also an event to remember Kwasi and what he meant to so many of us at the club lucky enough to have spent time with him - especially fitting as we approach the anniversary of his passing this weekend.
Thank you to the 145+ friends and family who have donated to this great cause and thanks to our walkers: Dave H, Matty H, Connor, Will T, Foo, Benty, Jenty, Nicho, Stu Nich, Dan C, Bates, and former captain James K, Flo, Disco, Wez and Hockey Dog
