Forty-eight hikers braved the climb to the peak of Snowdon in aid of Hampshire hospices.
The group took part in the Snowdon Sunrise challenge to raise funds for Naomi House & Jacksplace, which support children and young adults with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions.
Together, they raised £20,000 for the Sutton Scotney-based hospices.
The group, including individual fundraisers and corporate supporters, climbed 1,085 metres to the summit of Yr Wyddfa, the highest mountain in Wales.

"It was very challenging, but we do these things because it’s for a good cause.
"Having Naomi House & Jacksplace as our charity partner and participating in these challenges brings us closer together as a team – so thank you for letting us do mad things like climb mountains."
Participants were motivated by fitness goals, team-building opportunities, and a shared commitment to supporting the hospices.
Gemma, events executive at Naomi House & Jacksplace, said: "It’s wonderful seeing a group of people come together to undertake such a challenge for Naomi House & Jacksplace.
"Everyone was so determined to reach the summit and knowing that their efforts can make a difference for children and young adults made the experience even better.
"Well done and thank you to everyone who took part in our annual Snowdon Sunrise event."
The £20,000 raised is enough to fund 714 hours of nursing care, helping families through some of the most difficult times.
