Story

As many of you know this time last year, we had a Belvedere Mead Stars team take on the challenge of running up Tower 42 raising funds for Shelter. 

This year, after being "eyebrowed" by my daughter, we have a team that is going to join the Action For Kids Abseil coming down the The ArcelorMittal Orbit: a giant sculpture that swirls and swoops and delivers you views of the London skyline up to 20 miles in to the distance. 


Six times as high as the Angel of the North. 

This year we have decide to support the Charity - ACTION FOR KIDS, an amazing charity helping some amazing individuals live their lives to full.
 http://www.actionforkids.org/


Action For Kids supports young people who have a disability, whether a physical condition of a learning difficulty,  live the life they want to.  The charity provides mobility equipment; funds for repairs to equipment; learning support to develop work place and independent living skills to ensure young people can reach their dreams.  Paul & I have been blessed with fit and healthy children who have  grown into fun loving, adventurous adults so it is an honour to help Action For Kids to support  those who need greater assistance to live and love life.

So please support us to support them,  donate generously and have a laugh by watching my preparation video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIRyzFwJcpY
