Mr Solkar, Mr Arora and friends are taking on an incredible challenge: 6 hikes in 7 days around the Tour du Mont Blanc to raise vital funds for Colorectal Cancer services at Tameside Hospital.

The Tour du Mont Blanc is one of Europe's most demanding and spectacular trekking routes, covering breath taking alpine trails across France, Italy and Switzerland. Over the course of a week, the team will tackle challenging mountain passes including the Col du Bonhomme, Col de la Seigne and Col des Fours, while navigating steep climbs, rugged terrain and long days on the trail, all in support of a cause close to their hearts.

Every step taken is to help make a difference for patients and families affected by colorectal cancer and to support the outstanding care provided by Tameside & Glossop Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust.
