Bristol dad Adam Alderman took on the tough challenge of carrying his blind son up the formidable 4,400ft Ben Nevis to raise funds to help Cameron avoid a world of ‘silent darkness’. The 10-year-old was born with Norrie disease, which left him blind and he is progressively losing his hearing.
Mum Carla said that if Cameron loses his hearing completely, he will be left in a dark and silent place. Cameron loves music, including drum and bass, as he can feel the vibrations.
The couple joined forces Norrie Disease Foundation to take on the challenge and launched a £15,000 fundraising campaign ‘The Race Against Silent Darkness’.
