A East Lothian woman abseiled the Forth Bridge for charity after her husband and dad suffered heart attacks.
Scotrail train conductor Jenna Brown travels over the South Queensferry bridge several times a day for work, however, hanging off it gave her a completely different view.
The 38-year-old decided to take part in the challenge for Chest, Heart & Stroke Scotland to show support for the care her loved ones received, saying she hopes "no daddies leave their loved ones before their time".
Jenna's father, John Harkins, tragically passed away suddenly after a heart attack in 2014. Then in 2017, her husband - also John - had a heart attack at the age of just 46. He required emergency surgery to insert a stent into his heart, and has gone on to make a full recovery. This, and the loss of her father, prompted Jenna's fundraising.

The mum-of-two added: "I’ve had first-aid training because of my job, but it’s a different matter when it’s your own husband.
