During SAFE Week (Safeguarding Adults for Everyone) in November some of the bravest and most fearless employees of the North Tyneside, Northumberland and Newcastle councils and partner agencies will be doing a Zip Slide off the iconic Tyne Bridge in Newcastle. 

The zip slide starts from the Newcastle side 30 metres above the River and travels diagonally across the River Tyne for 230m before finishing at HMS Calliope on the Gateshead side. The event takes place on Sunday 1st November 2015.

We will be raising funds for Action on Elder Abuse, in order to highlight the issue and support their work with elderly victims of abuse and those at risk.

Please give if you can to support the cause and our hair-raising challenge!
