Tickled Pink is the only national charity Asda support and community champion Wendy Border wanted to organise something to do their bit.

“It was a fantastic weekend and the walk went really well – everyone we met was very generous,” she said.

“A special thank you to 247 Taxis who gave us a free ride back after the walk for all the tired walkers.”

Tickled Pink has been raising money for breast cancer care and research for the last seventeen years and has raised £40m so far.
