The British stars trekking the Inca Trail in Peru for charity have completed their journey and are back in the UK – after raising over US$150,000 for Breast Cancer Care.
All five stars – Denise van Outen, Fearne Cotton, Alexandra Burke , Amanda Byram and Gabriella Cilmi – and the six women diagnosed with breast cancer who accompanied them reached Manchu Picchu in the weekend. The trek saw them hike over 80km through Amazon rainforest and over hilly and rocky terrain. The trail took them to high altitudes through some of Peru’s most beautiful scenery, finishing at Machu Picchu.
“It means the world to all of us!” exclaimed Fearne Cotton. “At the dinner we found out our total so far raised for breast cancer care! Over 100,000 pound sterling! So chuffed but we hope to build on this when home.”
