Raising money for SOS Africa

Story

Next Spring, SOS Africa will host a 160ft charity abseil fundraising event from King Alfred’s Tower at Stourhead. Re-scheduled following the cancelation of Day 3 of the autumn 2025 event, the sponsored charity abseil will take place on the weekend of 25th/26th April 2026. Courtesy of the National Trust Stourhead, this exciting event is the charity’s highest to date and a unique opportunity for the general public to abseil this iconic historical venue.

Throughout this highly anticipated 2-day charity abseil, brave fundraisers from across the Southwest and beyond will climb Alfred’s Tower’s 205 steps and descend from the top of this iconic monument. Before touching down at the base of the tower they will be able to savour breath-taking views across the surrounding counties.
