A BLACKBURN law firm is asking daredevils to join its fundraising plans.

Napthens Solicitors wants people to join its first ever zipwire challenge at Blackburn Rovers to raise money for Blackburn Youth Zone.

The firm, which is based at Greenbank Court on Greenbank Business Park, has a team of employees who will hurtle themselves over Ewood Park, the home of Blackburn Rovers.

The Blackburn Youth Zone charity provides a safe and positive space for young people aged eight to 18 in the community.

It provides world-class sports and arts facilities 365 days a year for just 50p per visit.

Oliver McCann, head of Napthens’ East Lancashire office, said: “We’ve been getting very excited about the event and can’t wait to zip across the pitch at Ewood Park.

“This is the first chance people will have to take on this challenge and it will be a fantastic experience.”

The Blackburn Rovers Zipwire takes place on Saturday, September 5.

Registration costs £26 and Blackburn Youth Zone asks that participants raise a minimum of £75 in sponsorship. Book at www.blackburn.org/adrenaline or call 01254 292 000.
