Charity abseil raises over £1800

July 2, 2024

Last week five of our brave volunteers and supporters abseiled 95 metres down the Lloyd's of London building. We were offered five places on the charity abseil by the Lloyd’s of London Foundation, as a result of receiving a donation from their Lloyd's Market Charity Awards last year.

We are so proud of our abseilers who not only challenged themselves and conquered fears of heights, but also raised a massive £1876 between them - surpassing their target of £1500.

We wanted to share some photos from the day and thank our brilliant team - Emma  Sheppard, Jemima O'Reilly, Aggie Kaziszyn, Rob Crabb, and Evie Capewell.
