'We all miss her so much and have been left with such a huge void that will never be filled'

Firefighters Dan Jackson and Chris Prodromis are veterans of tough charity treks. But none will be as challenging or emotionally charged as the one they are doing on Sunday.

Their friend, Charlotte Jones, was diagnosed in February this year with Stage 4 bowel cancer, which spread to her lungs and liver. Charlotte lived in Glossop with her lifelong partner Colin and their baby son Maximus, who is only one year old. Charlotte married Colin in June but sadly died the following week aged just 32.READ MORE: M.E.N.

Dan, 38, and Chris, 37, have been fundraising for various charities in recent years, taking on the New York and Paris marathons, as well as climbing Everest and the Three Peaks raising £10,000. “It’s really going to be quite a challenge for them both,” said Ella. “Although it is the shortest distance for them, compared with previous runs, it will be the most emotional fundraiser that they have ever done. Plus, they have all the equipment with them as if they’re dragging a real person in a rescue, so it will be quite a task."
