Skateboard Zip Wire Anyone?

Muddy trip!

Taste for heights

Yesterday - Kat, Natalie and I went to GoApe to get some experience with heights  - and whilst the abseil is going to be up a whole lot higher than the tree's we were in yesterday, it was certainly good fun  - even if it was rainy for some of it!

At least we dont need to climb up the hospital and its a one way ticket down!

Practise makes perfect!

With around 2 months to go until we get abseiling down the hospital, its time to get some practise in and get used to some height! 

Myself and the girls, Kat and Natalie, will be going on a treetop adventure course  on the 1st of august. The GoApe  Cockfosters course is 2-3 hours of fun  - with zip lines up to 120m long, and platforms up to 50ft high!  a fraction of the 300ft our abseil is! 

How much more money can we raise before the big day? 

WE HAVE A NEW DATE!

Finally after several long months of waiting we have a new abseil date. 

Friday the 17th of September. Woop! 

Thank you for all those who donated previously, if you want to donate again - hint hint  - feel free!

Fingers crossed for no further delays! 

Another new target.

Seeing as we don't know when we will be able to abseil, the only sensibly decision is to raise the goalposts! 

Please share the link around your friends/family/co-workers. It would be greatly appreciated. 


POSTPONED - Coro-no-you-better-dont-ruin-everything!!!

GAH! Due to our lovely friend Corona and the new impending government guidelines the abseil is being postponed. 

Gutting so close to the event, we had t-shirts ready, mentally prepped, days off work booked. Annnnd last minute we have to wait. 

As soon as there is news on the new date (fingers crossed this year still!!!) I will let you all know. 

Until then, I thought best get some practice in - I'll be going to GoApe! Will get a small taste again of abseiling and heights. 

Will update with images so you can see how I get on.

Thank you all for donating so far, it is all going to a wonderful cause, and I cant wait to do this!

£300 Goal reached!

With a little under a month to go I have reached the £300 goal - thank you so much to all that have sponsored! 

I am going to put the goal up higher to £500 as I think we can easily get to that number! 

Dropping off the edge of a building - all for a good cause!

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.


When my friend Kat was looking for someone to join her in the abseil I thought, why not? Why not push myself to do something I have never done before, and all for a wonderful cause!


I wouldn't say I am terrified of heights, but I am sure that will change when I actually get to the top! 280ft is pretty high off the ground, so I am hoping for a great view, and the chance to take a seriously awesome selfie!


If you can donate anything at all it would be super appreciated - if you cannot donate please do share the link it would be really appreciated!


There will be a prize of home baked cookies (baked by moi!) to the highest donation - who doesn't love cookies?

Thank you to my Sponsors
