Together, Jess and Catherine raised £180 in sponsorship money for the Little Princess Trust.

Jess, said: “The Little Princess Trust does amazing work and I was really keen to support the walk.

“It was a great atmosphere on the morning, although it was extremely windy – Storm Brian had swept through the day before.

“Fortunately, I managed to complete the walk without a single blister - must have been the lucky pink trainers!”
