Story

For some reason I have elected to abseil off Battersea Power Station on September 26th - 160 ft of terror. This is all to raise money for MAG (Mines Advisory Group), a great organisation that works to relieve the suffering caused by landmines and other remnants of conflict. My aim is to raise at least £200 for this great cause.

MAG works in current and former conflict zones, to reduce the threat of death and injury from remnants of conflict. These include anti-personnel and anti-vehicle landmines, as well as rockets, missiles, mortars, grenades, ammunition, small arms and light weapons, and many more types of deadly items. It's not just carry out plain landmine or bomb clearance – some projects aren’t even about landmines.

They educate people living, working and travelling through contaminated areas, to minimise the risks of them, their friends and families being killed or maimed.


This is a very worthy cause which does fantastic work towards helping people whose lives have already been deeply affected by conflict, so please donate if you can :)


Thanks!

About the charity

Every single day, 15 people are killed or injured because of landmines and other explosive weapons. Half of all civilian casualties are children. MAG finds and destroys these weapons to save lives and rebuild futures; helping people to grow crops, attend school and build homes.
