Story

On Saturday 4th July, I am taking on an unforgettable challenge - abseiling down the iconic Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth.

Hopefully over the last few years youve seen how much i believe in cause. I'm very proud to once again be putting myself on the line once again to raise vital funds for Motiv8. Allowing my amazing colleagues continue supporting young people in Gosport, Havant, Portsmouth & Fareham & help give them a brighter future.

I'm not amazing with heights so please give generously so I keep believing I can do this!

Standing at 170 metres tall, the Spinnaker Tower offers breathtaking views & an adrenaline-pumping 100m descent! I'll be harnessed up & stepping over the edge to make a real difference in the lives of those who need it most.
