Story
As you might already know, I am scared of heights. I try to avoid them.
More than once, I've walked down flights of stairs past 5 year olds queuing for a waterslide because I just couldn't do it (the 5 year olds were very nice about it!).
And yet, last month I found myself volunteering to do an abseil from the top of the flipping Trafford Centre!
Peer pressure played a large part (!), but so did the great cause that is Forever Manchester (details below), and it would be marvellous if you'd sponsor me and, more importantly, support their fantastic work.
Thank you

Forever Manchester is the only charity that raises money to fund and support community activity across Greater Manchester. We believe that connected communities make stronger, happier communities, so we love any activity that brings people together.
In every neighbourhood across Greater Manchester there are thousands of people involved in community activity. In fact, at any given time there are an unbelievable 20,000 local grassroots projects of varying sizes and interests taking place. These activities are the lifeblood of our neighbourhoods, they are happening right now on our doorsteps and they are being run by people who give up their precious time to make our communities happier and safer places to be.
Forever Manchester cares about those people who care enough to act. We champion local people doing extraordinary things together. When advice, encouragement and funding is needed, Forever Manchester is there to provide a hand up to support them.
