Dr Niall Campbell is going to walk the full 200 miles of the GM Ringway in 2025 to raise funds for NW Hearts Charity, the heart charity for Greater Manchester. NW Hearts Charity is passionate about improving the lives of people who are living with, or at risk of, heart disease and their families. They fund and support projects which change lives.

Dr Campbell is a Consultant Cardiologist and Chair of the Board of Trustees.

The GM ringway is a trail of 200 miles around Greater Manchester made up of 20 stages. These explore all ten boroughs of Greater Manchester.

Dr Campbell will be walking each of the 20 stages on different days between March and September, mainly on weekends when he's not working in hospital.

It would be great if as many people as possible could join him, as and when they can. The stages range from leisurely to challenging. It will be a great opportunity to explore every part of our region, get outside more and hear some great stories.

If you want to undertake your own 2025 GM Ringway Challenge to walk some of the stages and raise funds separately, then that would also be brilliant!

If you are interested in joining the walks with Dr Campbell and/or getting updates about the stages please submit your details here.

Details about the GM Ringway routes can be found here.

Thank you for all your support.

NW Hearts Charity Team.
