For 8 years now The Lakeland Festival of Light has been taking place using Lakeland Mountain Guides as a platform to raise funds for various charities. It all started back in 2015 when they did their first ever 'Striding Edge by Torchlight' event" 
In 2016 was the first year of Catbells Festival of Light.
In 2023 over 2,500 people attended all the events and 100% of the profits go to charity and so far they have raised in excess of £75,000 for 6 different charities and had more than 6,700 people come light up the fells .
