Peter Tomlinson, Lauren Murray and Jeff Tomlinson raised £1,147 for Springhill Hospice when they took part in the North West ‘Tough Mudder’.

Peter siad: “Some of the obstacles are impossible to conquer alone and you find yourself standing on the shoulders of complete strangers to build a pyramid of people to climb over a wall, or on a water challenge where it’s only down to teamwork, and goodwill, that you can get across.

“For Lauren and myself this was our third year. Each year you collect a different coloured headband and our aim is to get the full set of ten! We will all be entering in 2017 and hoping to rope in a few more on the team. It is hard work but enjoyable, in a sadistic kind of way."

Julie Halliwell, Springhill Hospice Chief Executive, said: “Once again, I am amazed to learn of the efforts that are made by our wonderful supporters to help raise funds for the Hospice. We are immensely grateful to Peter and his colleagues for this incredible sum and for giving their time to support our work here at Springhill.”
