Get Ready to Jump into Christmas with St Margaret’s Hospice Santa Abseil!
Join our most dedicated supporters for an unforgettable experience—abseiling 60 feet down the stunning Cheddar Gorge on Sunday, 1st December!
Dressed as Santa, with the full support of the St Margaret’s team, and cheered on by your family and friends (two spectators per abseiler), you’ll scale the cliffs of Cheddar Gorge. As you ascend, take in the breathtaking views before gearing up with your harness and ropes. Then, take a leap of faith and abseil down the iconic cliff face! At the bottom, you’ll be greeted with a medal and a well-deserved mince pie.
You won’t be alone in this challenge! Last year, 50 Santas came together to support each other, raising an incredible £12,500 for St Margaret’s Hospice. Feel inspired? Check out the photos and videos below to see the magic for yourself!
