Hi, I’m Theodore Newman. My dad and I are going to abseil down Roseberry Topping in the North Yorkshire Moors National Park, in aid of Marie Curie.

My grandma’s organised this event and there’re loads of us getting involved but I’m the youngest by far. I’ll only just have turned nine and I’m a little nervous about the abseil but it’s for a great cause and I’m determined to beat my dad down!

So go on, dig deep and sponsor us please!

Marie Curie provides care and support for people living with any terminal illness across the UK. Our nurses work night and day in peoples homes and our hospices offer specialist care. We also support people emotionally, provide practical information, and match them with trained volunteers.
