What We Do
The Long Way Down
4 Exciting Abseil Events to challenge yourself with this Autumn!
Tanzania is 4,500 miles from the UK – that’s a long way down from the UK!
This September, we’d like to ask you to travel a bit less far south to make a big difference to our work.
Imagine hanging 50 metres above the ground while controlling your own descent at some of the most impressive sites around the UK….
How it works
PICK ONE (or all!) from the following and by going a little further down for us you can make an impact on the lives of thousands of people in Tanzania by giving them access to safe, emergency dentistry.
12th September - Baitings Dam
Abseil down this impressive dam wall in West Yorkshire. A slightly more challenging event than the others as it’s down the stepped part of the wall. A good fitness level is needed to participate.
26th September – Mersey Ventilation Shaft
The 50m Mersey Tunnels Ventilation Shaft located in Birkenhead provides an exhilarating abseil with fantastic views across the River Mersey.
2nd October – Walsall Art Gallery
This iconic building in Walsall, West Midlands provides an exciting 30m abseil in the heart of the town.
3rd October – Carlisle Civic Centre
The Civic Centre abseil located in the centre of town provides a great view of Carlisle in Cumbria and an exciting abseil.
