Happy Obhrai, Callum Crick, Sonia Chand-Jalif and Steven Block (pictured above, L-R) took on the 39.2km walk, battling torrential rain, strong winds and fog to complete their challenge in just over 12 hours.
The Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge is a circular walk which encompasses three major peaks in the Yorkshire Dales — Pen-Y-Ghent, Whernside, and Ingleborough — and includes 1600m of ascent up the peaks.
The £1,253 raised will be split between Slough Foodbank and Ilford Foodbank, supporting those struggling with food insecurity in the current economic crisis.

Other Metro Bank employees recently spent a day volunteering at the Euston Foodbank as part of the company's ‘Day To Amaze’ scheme, which gives employees paid time off to perform charity work.
“In spite of some appalling weather and the staggering 65,465 steps we took, this was a truly amazing experience,” commented Sonia, academy manager at Metro Bank.
“We really wanted to raise money for the foodbanks which support our local communities by providing emergency food and supplies to those struggling through the cost of living crisis.
“We are proud to have supported each other to ensure we all started and finished together."
