The challenge started when Claire’s son Harry committed to the 21 mile walk along with his friends and signed up to The Coniston to Barrow (C2B) walk.

A 21 mile walk through beautiful rolling hills and what perfect weather they had for the day.

The whole family joined the walk and so far they have nearly raised £1,000 for Rosemere Cancer Foundation.
