Story

This is a team effort with team captain Jen Parker (Viv's daughter) and team members: Jo Milliken, Kim and Alex Liptrot, Vicky Haig, James Haig, Laura Bland, Michelle and Chris Chambers.

Vivien Liptrot died at LOROS hospice at the end of March 2019. The care she received from them in the last few weeks of her life was incredible, and they continue to support the family with their grief. Viv was an inspirational woman and loved by many, so in her memory we are abseiling down one of her favourite things in the world, a bridge, on what would have been a weekend celebrating her 65th birthday. We will be conquering fears and testing ourselves, all in the name of saying 'Happy birthday' to Viv and thank you to the wonderful LOROS hospice, so that they can continue with their vital role in the community.
