The Thomson family, from Ellesmere, has raised over £8,000 in walks over the past three years and did the fourth between May 13-18.

Andrew and Mary Thomson started the walks four years ago.

Last year they were joined by their daughter, Lorna, who lives in London, and Jamie, who travelled from Australia.

Mr Thomson said: "Last year our son, Jamie, came from Australia to join us. He found it so rewarding that he expressed the wish to repeat the experience. So, although last year was intended to be our last, we decided to do a fourth walk in May this year.
