Story

<p>Welcome to my fundraising page and thank you for taking the time to read about our event.</p> <p>On 12th May 2012 I will be attempting to abseil down the Lift Tower in Northampton with other colleagues from Travis Perkins. The tower is 418ft tall and apparently it sways in the wind!!&nbsp;</p> <p>The reason that I am doing this (apart from temporary insanity!!) is for a very worthwhile charity called The Lowdown.</p> <p>The Lowdown provides free and confidential counselling, information and support services to 12 - 25 year olds in Northampton and the surrounding areas.</p> <p>Since opening their doors in 1989, they have supported thousands of young people who have told them that their lives have changed for the better.</p> <p>Please could I ask you to dig deep and show this fantastic charity the support that it deserves by sponsoring me.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So thank you again for your support and I will see you at the bottom (hopefully!!) for a well earned Martini!!</p> <p>Rachel x</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
