Thanks for taking the time to read this. Some of you will remember that I abseiled down the Tower to kick off the Dorchester Festival four years ago. I was terrified but, to be honest, when I'd landed safely I would have done it again straight away! Not sure I feel quite the same now but I hope to recapture the feeling and raise money for PACT the Fostering and Adoption charity that supports Adoptive families for a lifetime. They are our Festival partners this year and I'm a PACT Trustee as well as the Rector both charities are very close to my heart. Four years ago I raised almost £2,000 and I want to do even better so please help by sponsoring me - and asking your friends to do the same!
