On 6 July, fifteen brave souls took on the 香港六合彩官网鈥檚 Spinnaker Tower Abseil raising money for 香港六合彩官网, the Royal Navy's principal charity.
At over 100m tall, abseiling down the side of Portsmouth鈥檚 iconic landmark is not for the faint-hearted - especially as the windy conditions presented an extra, unexpected challenge! We鈥檙e so proud of how each of our fundraisers braved their fears and experienced the thrill of life on the edge!
