Story

I AM TERRIFIED OF HEIGHTS

In October, I am taking on an unforgettable challenge - abseiling down the iconic Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth - all to raise vital funds for Motiv8 to continue supporting young people in Gosport, Havant, Portsmouth & Fareham & help give them a brighter future.

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

For more than 25 years Motiv8 has been unlocking brighter futures for young people. Working across Portsmouth, Havant, Gosport & Fareham, they recognise there are many factors which can lead to instability at home, a person needing support around their emotional health or wellbeing, or place young people & their families at increased risk of becoming involved in anti-social behaviour or crime. Motiv8 take a place led & person-centred approach, building on strengths & providing positive life chances.
