These women hiked Scafell Fell pike with kitchen sinks

Teacher Emma Woodhall and a group of women hiked Scafell Pike with kitchen sinks attached to their back to raise money and awareness for a domestic abuse charity Harbour.

The resident of County Durham said: “It was challenging with the heat but we all had a good day and had so much support on the mountain from people who passed by and were so kind and supportive.”

The group of friends raised more than £300 for the charity which supports women and families affected by domestic abuse across the UK.

The 36-year-old has been going out wild camping and wild swimming since she was a teenager.

“I would like to thank all the ladies who hiked- April, Zena, Ashley, Vicky, Jen, Julie, Denise and Sian. It was a wonderful feeling for all of us when we got to the top of the mountain.”

Emma runs a tiktok page and has over 25k followers who follow her outdoor adventures across the country.

She said, “I am on the positive side of Tiktok. And I love using it to look at adventure and outdoor content and sharing my experiences as well.”

In July last year, Emma and the other co-founder of wild wanderers women Corinne Hurrary, scaled a 2,850ft peak in the Lake District in four-inch heels and dresses to raise money for Women’s Aid. Follow wild wanderers on Instagram.
