WATCH: Tameside Netball Club Coach Strides Out For Charity

Tuesday, 13 December 2022 at 12:04

By Mark Frost X @Mark_P_reporter

A Tameside Netball Club coach has set himself a challenge of completing a 5km run per day throughout December to raise funds for Macmillan Cancer Support.

Nick Hill, who coaches the club's youngsters, is striding out in the bitterly cold weather in a bid to raise £200. Donations have so far totalled £135.

We spoke to Nick about the reasons behind his efforts, the latest updates on court, and how the girls will be celebrating the festive season over the coming week.
