Congratulations go to Maureen Cossar, senior nurse, mental health and learning disability service, University Hospital Wishaw, who won the ‘best photo’ submission. Maureen successfully climbed Tinto Hill in South Lanarkshire and proudly captured the moment.
Maureen said: “As part of my commitment to the walking challenge, I managed to push myself to climb Tinto. I know many have done this but I’m still quite proud of myself – now I’ve recovered a little!”
Those who have still to complete the challenge have until 8pm on Monday 31 May to log their steps.
