Story

NEW UPDATE

So the new date and venue has been announced….

2nd September in Wakefield!

Unfortunately Ange is not available this date so Amy will be taking her place joined by David. The trio will be abseiling 164ft down the Wakefield Cathedral spire!

Time to be confirmed…

UPDATE

Thanks for all the support so far. It’s been amazing!

Unfortunately our abseil this Sunday has been postponed due to damage at the hotel roof which needs repair before we can descend down from it.

When we have a new date we will update here.

We’re daring the drop for Children's Heart Surgery Fund and will descend 140ft down the Crowne Plaza hotel in Harrogate on Sunday 4th June to raise vital, life-saving funds for the Leeds Congenital Heart Unit, it's incredible patients and their families.

We’ve been inspired to take part for our colleague Amy who has been supported by this amazing charity following the birth of her son Max.

Any amount you can give in support of this challenge is greatly appreciated, however big or small.

Thank you

Ange Dixon & Lindsey Howarth
