Pub team scale Britain's highest mountain in memory of loved ones
Pub staff scaled the highest mountain in Britain for charity.
A team from the Old Millstone pub headed north of the border earlier this month to embark upon a mammoth challenge for East Cheshire Hospice.
The seven-strong unit climbed Ben Nevis, raising more than £2,000 for the Macclesfield-based charity in the process.
Landlady Eli Feney said: "We do a lot for charity every year.
"This year I got a team together to climb Ben Nevis for East Cheshire Hospice.
"I spent many months staying in the hospice when I lost my beautiful mum to cancer.
"Hospice care is about more than helping people die with dignity, it's about helping them live lout life with love."
Supporting local charities has been a theme of Eli's tenure at the Old Millstone.
In the past she has hosted Christmas Day buffets for those spending the holiday alone, arranged collections for Silklife Foodbank and climbed Snowdon to raise money for Space4Autism
The pub is currently collecting Easter eggs which will be donated to causes such as the Joshua Tree and Macclesfield Children and Baby Library as part of Silk FM's appeal.
For her latest challenge, Eli climbed Ben Nevis on Wednesday, April 2.
She was joined by Adam Harrison, Amy Done, Brian Izzard, Jodi Izzard, Anne Marie Rochford and Emma McFadden.
Eli wasn't the only one with a personal connection to East Cheshire Hospice, with Amy taking on the challenge in memory of her great grandad.
At the time of writing, Eli and her team have raised £2,207.
