So, Ryan Swain not only one-upped his own expectations of the “52 Mile Skateboarding Challenge” by managing to skate a total of 54.4 miles, he also managed to raise £2,803.05 for the Yorkshire based charities “Louby’s Lifeline” and “Brain Tumour Research and Support across Yorkshire” in the process.

“I would like to thank everyone who donated and contributed, it’s been a fabulous communal achievement to help prevent others from suffering and hopefully to try and help find some new treatments and remedies to prevent any more people having to endure what the local heroine Laura Tierney did. Thank you to all.” – Ryan Swain.
