London's Air Ambulance Helipad Abseil June 2023

I Abseiled to help save lives in London

It's done! And it involved a lot more dangling and sheer dropping than I anticipated. I still prefer the risk inherent in swiping right on dating apps to the risk in stepping off the edge of a 330 foot building.

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.

I will be abseiling from the home of London's Air Ambulance Charity on the 17th Floor of The Royal London Hospital in Whitechapel. Please give what you can to help save lives in London.

Thank you to my Sponsors

Normally I wouldn't advocate hurling yourself off a tall building, but as it's for charity...
