Ex-Wolves manager takes on club abseil challenge
Mick McCarthy will join Wolves Foundation ambassadors to raise money for the charity.
Mick McCarthy, the former Wolverhampton Wanderers manager, is set to abseil down Molineux Stadium to raise funds for the club's official charity. He will be accompanied by broadcaster Suzi Perry, who is a Wolves Foundation ambassador, for the annual event scheduled for Saturday. Participants will ascend to the top of the Billy Wright Stand before descending to the pitch via the abseil.
BBC Radio WM's Mark Rhodes, another charity ambassador, will also participate and present live from Molineux between 10:00 and 14:00 BST. McCarthy expressed his excitement for the event, despite his fear of heights. He admitted that his fear has existed since his youth and has only worsened with age, but he decided to participate in order to try something new.
This will be McCarthy's return to Wolves after his six-year tenure as manager, which coincides with the club's 20th anniversary.
