About Nigel

Nigel Harris passed away suddenly with a cardiac arrest in November 2013. He left behind a loving wife, a beautiful daughter and devoted family.

Nigel was a natural athlete and golfer and loved to spend several hours at Calderfield’s Golf Club, honing his sport.  He was an outstanding sportsman who excelled at all sports in particular Martial Arts especially Judo and Karate in which he achieved 5th Dan.

Nigel worked in numerous organisations as a mentor/trainer with both children and adults and was an inspiration and role model to so many.

His wife, family and close friends feel that Nigel gave so much to society and felt it was only fitting that a charity be set up in his name to continue his work to inspire, motivate, encourage and support children to raise their self-esteem, confidence and aspirations; hence the birth of The Nigel Harris Sports Foundation.
