Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I haven't abseiled since I was maybe 11 according to my twin :D.
I've wanted to do an event for charity for years now but not being a fan of running, not many things appeared on my radar. Until now!!!
I'm wanting to do an abseil like no other – a 450ft descent in open space. In the dark. Dressed as Santa. And all to raise vital funds for local life-limited children and their families.
Taking place on Friday 23 November, this is the first ever Night iDrop, and if you want to come and watch just pop down to Brighton seafront and watch lots of Santa's descending from the sky!
There are potentially 1,000 families with life-limited children in Sussex. Chestnut Tree House offers support for the whole family including psychological and bereavement support, end of life and short break care and sibling support.
It currently costs over £3.9million each year to provide all the care services offered by Chestnut Tree House. Families are never charged for their care and less than 6p in every pound is funded by the government, so we rely heavily on the generosity, help and support of the people of Sussex.
