Why, you ask? To raise funds for the Chesterfield Royal Hospital Trust Charity, Rural Action Derbyshire – Feeding Chesterfield and the Derbyshire Law Centre – the three charities proudly chosen as the 2024/25 Mayor’s Charity of the Year.
Mahmud Nawaz is swapping boardroom bravery for heightened fear!! When asked about the challenge, he quipped: “I’ve faced some tough meetings in my time, but nothing quite prepares you for dangling off the side of a building. It’s all for a fantastic cause, though, so bring it on!"
The Chesterfield Royal Hospital Trust Charity supports vital projects that enhance patient care and staff wellbeing. By taking on this daring feat, Mahmud and colleagues aim to inspire everyone to contribute to this worthy cause.
Mahmud added: “We wanted to raise funds for all three charities but more than that, we’re key players in the local community and we’re excited to be engaging in such a fun and joyful event at one of our most iconic buildings. I’d like to thank the Mayor and Mayoress – I think!! – for this opportunity!! Let’s raise some vital funds for three great charities! I’d urge everybody to give anything they may be able to – the difference made is huge for organisations like ours – where our charity provides equipment, training and opportunities which the NHS budget cannot stretch to.”
