Son's wonderful tribute for dad Jamie Brough who died on holiday

A Hucknall man is paying tribute to his dad, former Basford United Chairman Jamie Brough, with a meaningful challenge later this month. On Friday, April 24, Jude Brough will be climbing Mount Snowdon with colleagues and students at Sports Gateway, a sports college founded by Jamie.

Jude and Jamie previously climbed the mountain together during the summer of 2021, and now a group of around 20 people will be completing the climb in Jamie's memory. However, Jude will be the only one wearing a full firefighter kit and breathing apparatus throughout, weighting around 25 kilos as he is an on call fire fighter for Hucknall Fire Station.

Money raised from the event will be split between The Firefighters Charity and Sport in Mind, which are both causes close to Jude's heart. The 20 year old is also a tutor at Sports Gateway.
