Our friend, brother, nephew, cousin, uncle and son, James McNeive gave us 28 years of cherished memories, fun and laughter.

To honour his remarkable life, we are beginning a new and special tradition on the week of his birthday where his friends and family get together to do something mad, fun and challenging to help raise funds for good causes that would have been close to James heart.

To kick us off, we are excited to announce the Summit for James - 5 Peak Challenge; where we (and anyone else up for the challenge) aim to climb the four highest mountains in Ireland and the UK and of course Croagh Patrick in five days, starting on James Birthday, 24 June 2025.

We are grateful for any support we can get, whether it's a donation or participation in the event (or both). If you only climb one mountain, if you only donate €1 - all help is welcome and appreciated. All we care about is making this event as big and special as possible for James!

Further details on the event (including the event itinerary) can be found on the following social media pages:
