Every day, I’m humbled by the stories I hear through my work with the British Red Cross. From shelter after disaster to food and water during conflict, and medical care in the wake of crisis, this organisation is a lifeline. It offers hope, dignity, and vital support through the darkest day, here in the UK and around the world.

That’s why, on 28 September, I’m taking on a personal challenge, abseiling from the iconic Forth Rail Bridge to raise funds for the British Red Cross.

Every pound raised will help support people in crisis, no matter who or where they are.

I invite you to help through a donation to ensure that those in need receive essential support when they need it most. Your contribution will make a significant difference in someone’s life during their time of crisis.

The challenge!

This exhilarating and unique challenge allows you to abseil (free-fall style, like the S.A.S.!) from the iconic Forth Rail Bridge – Scotland’s Best Loved Landmark, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

It's a 165ft drop with a soft landing on the golden sandy beach below, set in the picturesque village of South Queensferry – the ultimate abseil experience!
