She took on the challenge to raise money for the charity MIND in memory of a close friend who took her own life in 2019.

“It was a difficult climb and ended up very much being a mental challenge rather than physical,” said Lucy.
“The conditions were one of the worst they could have been with rain and wind coming from every direction soon after we started.”
