A BISHOP Auckland hospice is inviting people to take part in a series of sponsored walks.

Butterwick Hospice Care has arranged the sponsored walks in Cumbria, for people to raise funds, while enjoying the scenery and getting some exercise at the same time.

The Summer Sunrise Walk, on June 21, involves spending the night on Skiddaw.

Twin Peaks is a challenging double for any walker wanting to complete the reputedly two best ridge walks in Cumbria

The third walk, called The Light of the Harvest Moon, offers the chance to view the Cumbrian lakes and fells
