Wigan dad will wear 80kg diving suit in charity marathon effort
A caring dad is taking on his biggest challenge yet to raise money for a charity supporting people with the same debilitating illness as his son.
Nigel Brookwell, from Swinley, started taking on eye-catching fund-raisers after his son Harry, now 17, was diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome, also known as ME, in 2016.
Harry could not attend school for two years, but he is now doing well and his dad is continuing to take on challenges to fund research into the condition to help other people.
His previous feats include pushing a hospital bed for 10 miles at last year’s Run Wigan Festival.
