The Graduate Recruitment have chosen to raise money for The Lewis Foundation by abseiling down Northampton's Lift Tower. This is the worlds largest abseil of 418ft!!!
The money you help us raise from this challenge will help to fund the free gifts and support you give to adults as they go through cancer treatment in hospital and the community. Taking on this challenge means you will make a HUGE difference to adults as they go through cancer treatment.
