Take the Leap for Bury Hospice: Charity Abseil Challenge

On Sunday 29th June 2025, supporters of Bury Hospice are invited to take on an exhilarating challenge and brave the drop from the stunning Trafford Palazzo at the Trafford Centre.

Participants will abseil an incredible 170ft, supported every step of the way by professional instructors from Big Bang Experiences, who will ensure the experience is both thrilling and safe. This unique event offers individuals the chance to push their limits while raising vital funds to support the compassionate care provided by Bury Hospice.

The event requires a £25 registration fee, and each participant is asked to raise a minimum of £200 in sponsorship. Every contribution helps Bury Hospice continue to deliver essential care to patients and families across the community.

All registered fundraisers will be supported by the hospice team, who will provide guidance with sponsorship, a Bury Hospice t-shirt to wear on the day, and ongoing encouragement leading up to the event.
