Abseil - Derby & Burton Hospitals Charity · 15 August 2026 · Start fundraising for this event

This August, our incredible supporters are taking on the Derby Cathedral Abseil for Derby & Burton Hospitals Charity. Every donation helps fund the extras that make a real difference for patients, families and NHS staff. 💙

Story

If there are two things I love, it's raising money for a good cause and pushing my limits. So when I heard about the Derby Cathedral Abseil Challenge I knew I had to do it!

I’ll be starting with a workout of climbing 189 steps to the top of the cathedral before abseiling 212 feet back down. When I was a high ropes instructor I was working at 30ft. This is 7x higher, yikes!!

I’m fundraising to support the extras that make a real difference for patients and staff - like specialist equipment, improved spaces, and wellbeing support across our hospitals.

Any donation, big or small, would mean so much and help make a real difference. Thank you for your support 💜
