Firefighters took part in The Broadgate Tower Run Up, climbing the equivalent of a vertical mile, some wearing full kit. And it was all to raise money for The Fire Fighters Charity. Bericote Properties has raised nearly £14,000 for The Fire Fighters Charity by zip-lining off the top of a 210m-high power station chimney Having decided she wanted a challenge, Sarah Bascombe completed a four-day cycle from Paris to Geneva. From Parisian streets to picturesque villages, here she shares her experience of a mountainous but spectacular 340-mile route that saw her raise over £2,000. Last month, 53-year-old Carol Lord from Bolton swam the 22 miles of Loch Lomond in 19 hours. Here, she describes her experience of this incredibly difficult challenge and what motivated her to keep going.
