Our Celebrity Ambassadors Get Roped In!

On September 15th 2018 our brave team of abseilers will take on the challenge of a lifetime, all in aid of raising money for Different Strokes.

The abseil which takes place at the acceleor orbit in London which is the tallest sculpture in the UK is our second this year. You can watch a video of our abseil in April HERE.
