First Central Arundel Abseilers , 26 March 2023
We provide children's hospice care to children and families across Sussex

Story

Our Arundel Abseilers are 24 brave colleagues who will make history and take on an abseil at the iconic Arundel Castle on Sunday 26th March 2023, all whilst raising money for Chestnut Tree House.

Climbing 200 steps up the iconic Bake House Tower’s winding staircase our brave volunteers will soak in the breathtaking panoramic views of Arundel and the South Downs then descend the side of the epic 180-foot tower to be knighted abseiling champs! 

What's more, they are going head to head with another First Central team, the Castle Climbers, to see who can raise the most money as part of their fundraising efforts! 

So can you help the Arundel Abseilers? Please sponsor anything you can to help them achieve their target and raise as much as they can all for Chestnut Tree House. 

So why are we doing this?

Chestnut Tree House is a children’s charity providing hospice care and community support for children and young people with life-limiting conditions. There are hundreds of children and young people in your local community who are unlikely to reach adulthood. And even more parents and family members who need care, help and support on their journey, as they don't know how long they will have together. Your support helps families to spend time together. Precious moments that give a lifetime of memories.
