Stone dad takes well-earned rest during sailing challenge around the UK

DAD Michael Goodwin will take a well-earned two week rest as part of his bid to sail around the UK to raise money for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust. The 59-year-old, from Stone, is one of a group of sailors taking on the challenge which is due to be completed in 2016. The team set off from Southampton on May 17 and has so far made it to Harwich, in Essex. Now the group will rest for two weeks before continuing on to Felixstowe, in Suffolk, on June 14. Michael – whose son Daniel, aged 34, suffers from Cystic Fibrosis – hopes to raise £6,000 for the charity.
