Abseiling Challenge

Lewis on right
On Sunday 3rd July Chris was involved in organising a Sponsored Abseil to raise money for local Scout groups.

The sponsored abseil was conducted off the 120ft tower of St. Annes Church, Royton. Kids from various Cub & Scout groups took part in the event to raise funds for their respective groups. Chris's nine year old son Lewis was amongst the 84 abseilers who took part in the event on what was a hot sunny day. Plenty of family, friends and even passers-by came along to cheer everyone on.

The event is planned again for next year and the organisors are hoping to get over 100 people to take part.
