The team will run a 4.5 mile assault course of obstacles including, muddy hills, rivers, a barbed wire swamp, sheer walls smeared in grease, dark tunnels, slippery ropes! It will be a mud bath!

 

The participants are:

Cheryl Abrahams, Lynne Burdon, Suzanne Trask, Stephen Josephides, Rebecca Sheriff, Zoe Lomax, Jenna Andrews, Laura Wynn, Michael Culver, Sarah Clacker, Yolanda Law, Kim Davis, David McClenaghan, Matt Hawkins, Sophie Shaladi, Melanie Whittaker, Tracy Smith, Stephanie Price, Ben Pepper, Susan Slattery, Andrew Rogers, Selina Flaherty, Jonathan Copping and Sonita Hayward.

 

Every 30 minutes, a child or young person will acquire a brain injury. This could be the result of an accident, an illness such as meningitis or encephalitis, a poisoning, a stroke or a brain tumour.

 

A brain injury has a devastating and life-long impact on the child and their whole family. Bones can mend and scars can heal but a brain injury stays with you for life and impacts on everything you think, feel and do.

 

The Child Brain Injury Trust is the charity that supports children, young people, their families and professionals and helps them come to terms with what has happened and how to deal with the uncertainty that the future may hold.
