Sharon has the following to say about abseiling...

Abseiling needs little introduction, suffice it to say.... it is one of the most exhilarating experiences you will ever have!  Not only abseiling from a huge height of 220ft, but descending directly through the fast flowing water to the gathering pool below.

Our team of highly skilled instructors will ensure you are equipped with all you need to make your abseil safe and as enjoyable as possible.  The entry fee covers the cost of staging  the evening.  This ensures that all sponsorship raised supports our lifesaving work.

This abseil event will enable us to place more life-saving donors onto our register of potential life-saving donors, in order to save the lives of people sadly suffering from leukaemia in Devon, whose only hope may be to receive a suitable bone marrow match.  It cost £125.00 to tissue type each person who goes on our register, so everyone who takes part in this event will be potentially saving at least one life each!

Entry Fee:  £20.00 per person
Minimum Sponsorship:  £100.00 per person
