Challenging climb pays off for charity

Brothers Will and Tom Matthews have completed the Three Peaks Challenge.

They said: “We recently lost our uncle, Robert ‘Simon’ Matthews. He embraced all that life had to offer, not letting the label of Down Syndrome get in his way.
“His attitude was partly enabled by the good work of the Shaw Wood Activity Group.
“Their goal is to aid the integration of people with learning disabilities into the community by promoting independent living skills and social inclusion.
“On September 17, we did the Three Peaks Challenge (Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Moun. Snowdon) within 24hrs and raised £900 to be presented to Shaw Wood Activity Group.”
