A CHESTER man will be going from three-piece to Three Peaks to help raise money for a family friend’s young daughter.
Lee Roddy, from Hoole, will take on the famous walking challenge while wearing a stylish three-piece suit.
He has launched a fundraiser for Joy who is the sister of his own son’s best friend at school.
Based in Guilden Sutton, Joy is a one-year-old girl with a condition called Polymicrogyria (PMG), and now he is hoping that people will get behind his attempts to raise £5,000 for her.
He said: “My wee boy Cillian has a good friend at school, Dexter.
“Dexter has a wee sister, Little Joy, who is a one-year-old with a condition called Polymicrogyria (PMG).

“This is a rare brain condition which has many impacts on Joy and her family’s life.
“On Saturday, October 10, I will be taking on "three peaks in a three-piece” which is Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon/Yr Wyddfa in 24 hours, dressed in my best three-piece suit.
“It will be 26 miles hiking, a 10,000 ft ascent, 462 miles travel all while dressed sharp.
“Granted, this idea started from alliteration, but its stuck now.
“While we cannot change Joy’s diagnosis, we can give her every chance to learn, grow and achieve milestones that many children reach naturally.
“Every donation will go towards specialist therapies, equipment and support that give Joy the best opportunity to reach her full potential.
“Thank you in advance and I’ll see you at the bottom, dressed sharp.”
