Three football fans have put their best foot forward walking 30 miles in a bid to help their friend who has been diagnosed with a brain tumour. Gaz Byrne and his brother Chris were joined by Danny Nixon on Saturday, April 17 as they walked from Warrington Wolves’ home ground, The Halliwell Jones Stadium, to Blackburn Rovers’ Ewood Park. The determined trio completed the challenge in honour of their friend Matty Latham, who has non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, which is a cancer of the lymphatic system. The 35-year-old from Great Sankey is currently undergoing chemotherapy to treat the condition, which is in his brain and his liver, and will be unable to work for the next 12 months.
