Charity money raised by hiking

Posted on Tuesday, 28 October 2008 03:43PM by Editor
Conservative Parliamentary Candidate for the High Peak Andrew Bingham completed the unique 4Peaks in Two days challenge in August and raised £748 for charity.

He said "The walk was done in aid of a new Cancer Support Group in Buxton. The group, run by Alison Morten, needed some funding to get them on their way. However we raised more than they needed so after discussions with Alison and Emma we decided to give the balance to Blythe House hospice in Chapel."

The proceeds of the walk, when Andrew was accompanied by Emma McClarkin, Conservative Prospective European Parliamentary Candidate for the East Midlands, have been donated to Blythe House Hospice (£448) and High Peak Cancer Support Group (£300).

During the walk, Andrew and Emma scaled Kinder Scout, Mam Tor, Castle Naze and Corbar Cross over a weekend.
