A total of £120 was raised from the weekend’s breathless endeavour, which will go towards helping her complete a bucket list of wishes she wants to fulfil while she’s well enough. Charlotte Shaw, 33, of Tunstall who runs Top to Toe Fitness in Bredgar, organised the boot camp.

She said: “I read about Aimee, and thought as a young woman and mum myself, I should do something to help.
