UNW Charity Zip Slide from the Tyne Bridge · 16 April 2016

Our objectives are: The relief of those in need by reason of age, ill-health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage, through the provision of specialist services and facilities that relieve such needs and promotes independent living. The promotion of the voluntary sector , in particular but not limited to, volunteering. We have been established since 1994 and look forward to supporting many more people in the community. Our aim is to listen to our beneficiaries and to offer support that they need.

Story

The Tyne Bridge is an iconic structure in our City and the UNW team of Amy, Fiona, Lara, Yasmin and Julie have taken up the challenge to put their fear of heights aside to help raise money for UNW's nominated charity, Caring Hands.  On Saturday 16 April they will zip slide from the Newcastle side - 30 metres above the River  - to travel diagonally across the River Tyne for 230m before finishing at HMS Calliope on the Gateshead side.
