Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.  To mark Alex's 18th and Mel's 50th birthdays we are taking part in this challenge to abseil 450ft down Guy's Hospital Tower to raise funds for ECHO. Alex has his two open-heart operations aged 2 and 8 years at Guy's and we have been members of ECHO ever since.

So it’s the most efficient way to donate - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
