and live on Freeview channel 276
The Sunset Walk challenged walkers to climb Helvellyn, the highest point in the Lake District and third-highest in England, to support York and Scarborough Hospitals Charity.
The reward was to watch a stunning sunset from the top before descending in the dark with head torches and glow sticks.

"Watching the sunset over the beautiful Lake District landscape was awe-inspiring and knowing we were all raising money for the hospital charity made it even more special.
“The group were fantastic with a great atmosphere and it was such an enjoyable walk with stunning views while offering tranquillity and silence.”
The feedback was so positive that York and Scarborough Hospitals Charity is planning another sunset walk in 2023.
