Would you dare the drop for The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award charity?
Take on this once in a lifetime challenge and get the chance to abseil 165ft (free-fall style, like the SAS!) from the iconic Forth Bridge – a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
As we celebrate 70 years of the DofE, we’re fundraising to support the next generation at a time when they need it most. Sign up for the Forth Bridge Abseil and help ensure no young person is prevented from doing their DofE due to financial barriers.
