Story

On Friday the 29th of October The Ronald McDonald House will host the first ever abseil from Generators Skyview Tower!

Towering above the skyline at 190 feet, this iconic Dublin landmark will see 100 of you descend into Smithfield Square this Halloween. This challenge is only for the bravest of House Heroes.

Participants must be over 16 and no abseiling experience is required. This event is ran in conjunction with www.ukbungee.co.uk. Insurance and training will be provided for the day. Courage, however, will have to be supplied by you!

244 winding steps await you before you take the plunge so please be sure you are fit and able for the 16 flights of steps before you sign up.

To register for this once in a lifetime challenge we ask for a payment of 100 to cover the cost of your abseil. Were aiming high for this challenge and suggest a 400 fundraising target (in addition to the 100 fee) per participant so think hard before you sign up!
