DPD Carlisle pair Ged Riley (Depot Manager) and Stephen Johns (driver) recently walked 70 miles to DPD Newcastle and raised over £600 in the process.
Their efforts - which took two and a half days to complete - were the latest leg of the company's 'Pink Parcel Challenge' that will see a pink parcel carried 3,907 miles between all of the company's depots.
Ged said: "I frequently run along Hadrian's Wall and do a lot of hill walking in the Lake District. Doing this sponsored walk was a great way to combine a hobby with raising money for a truly important cause."
