Young Farmers from Grayrigg, Kent Estuary, Sedbergh, Crook, Lowick and Broughton YFC Clubs cycled up Hardnott, the steepest road in England, followed by Wrynose, Honister and Whinlatter to raise money for Mountain Rescue

District Chairman Stephen Knowles said: “YFC raises a huge amount for charity over the year.

"We knew that Mountain Rescue had had a busy year and wanted to help by raising funds.

"Cycling over the 4 mountain passes seemed appropriate. We climbed over 5,000 feet and covered 48 miles and raised over £2,000”
