London's Air Ambulance Helipad Abseil 2024

We are abseiling to save lives in London

On Wednesday 4th and Friday 6th September, five members of RSA’s Legal & CoSec Team will be abseiling off the London Air Ambulance helipad (on the 17th floor of the Royal London Hospital) to raise money to support the London Air Ambulance, an organisation entirely supported through charitable activities and donations. 

Two members of the UK Legal & CoSec Team have recent personal  experiences of loved ones receiving the incredible immediate response and urgent care services of the London Air Ambulance. 

And this is why five of us have decided to fearlessly fundraise by undertaking this challenge, declaring ourselves the “RSA Abseiling Angels”.  Given it’s Europe's highest helipad, 17 floors up and there is a “free hang” aspect (no body contact with the wall!), the abseil is going to be exhilarating and panic-inducing in equal measure.

We would really appreciate any donation you are able to make towards our fundraising target.  All money raised will help the London Air Ambulance to continue their vital lifesaving work across London. 

Thank you! 

I'm Abseiling to help save lives in London

London’s Air Ambulance is the charity that delivers an advanced trauma team to London’s most seriously injured patients. Your donation will help save more lives by keeping the helicopter in the air and the rapid response cars on the road, ready for when they are needed most. By providing intervention as quickly as possible after injury, London’s Air Ambulance Charity aims to give patients the best chance of survival, and best quality of life, after trauma.

Please give what you can to help save lives in London.

Thank you to my Sponsors

Still can't quite get over how mad I think you all are for doing it but also super proud that you are doing something amazing for such a fantastic cause. I would say I will come and watch, but me and heights (even on the ground looking up) is a step too far but wishing you a ton of luck! Jacq x
