Picture sunny skies, mountains upon mountains and 120 incredible trekkers on a mission to raise awareness for the importance of checking our chests. 
Joined by the amazing CoppaTrek! legend Giovana Fletcher and team captains Emma Willis, Sara Davies, Erin Kennedy, Angela Scanlon and Candice Brown, the teams took on 4 days of trekking the Himalayas in India – some of the highest mountains in the world!
The journey began with TWO days of travel, including planes, buses and sleeper trains, before arriving at base camp. With fresh enthusiasm, and everyone donning their CoppaFeel! T-shirts, vibes were high and the Trekkers were ready to take on anything that came their way.
Pre-trek involved orientation, team pep talks from Queen Gi and the other fabulous team captains and one big group yoga session in preparation for the days to come.
Covered in CoppaFeel! glitter ✨ (& some sporting tutus), Trekkers embarked on a 4 day mission to raise awareness for the signs and symptoms of breast cancer. There were laughs, tears and blisters along the way, with teams singing and dancing their way through the mountains. After reaching their highest peak on day 3 (1300m!), Trekkers were overcome with emotion when they crossed the finish line, as they came to terms with the reality of what they’d just achieved. 4 days, over 35 hours and thousands of metres above the sea, a truly incredible accomplishment and all in the name of early breast cancer detection🍒. 
Trekker determination meant an astounding £727,000 has been raised so far, and you can still donate to support our trekkers and our life-saving mission.
A massive thank you to the incredible Trekkers who took part in the latest CoppaTrek!, what an amazing, resilient group. Thank you for your endless enthusiasm, trekking for such an important cause (if we do say so ourselves!). To our team captains, thank you for your commitment to the cause, keeping your teams motivated and smiling throughout the mountains. 
A huge shoutout to a couple of behind-the-scenes organisations, Charity.Challenge for organising Trekker safety and providing food and entertainment to fuel them on their journey. Thank you to our friends at Mountain Warehouse, who kindly donated their top-quality kit to make sure our team captains were well-prepared for all conditions and ready to take on the mountains! We are so grateful for your generous support🏅.
And as always, we cannot thank Gi enough for her dedication to the Treks. Her continuous support and boundless commitment to our mission means more to us than she will ever know. We 💖 you Gi!
