Helistrat has enlisted its Directors to take partin a Face your Fears Fundraiser Challenge. Five Directors are all signed up to take part in a challenge on Thursday 13th October 2016 that can only be described as their worst nightmare.  

 As Directors we are all a bit competitive so we thought to add a twist to the challenge we would add in a get-out clause. The person who raises the most money won’t have to go ahead with their challenge - instead they will watch with delight as the other four go through with theirs!

 My Challenge

It’s typical, isn’t it? One day at work you happen to mention in passing that you’re terrified of heights. You then get coerced, sorry I mean signed up to a Fear Factor Fundraiser Challenge in aid of our nominated charity Piam Brown Ward. Heights are my number one nemesis and after what seemed to be an innocent office party I some how agreed to take part in a heights related fundraiser and now am facing the prospect of having to climb over the O2 Arena in London.

There is still a chance I could get out of this. So if you can spare a bit of money to sponsor me, it would be very gratefully received indeed!

Thank you for taking the time to read this and an even bigger thank you to all those who donate to save me from this horrific challenge.
