About

This summer SOS Africa will host a 160ft charity abseil fundraising event from King Alfred's Tower at Stourhead in celebration of the organisation's 20th birthday! Taking place on the 9th, 10th 16th & 17th September 2023, the abseil event will be the charity's highest to date and the first time that this iconic historical venue will be open to public abseiling courtesy of the National Trust.
Throughout this highly anticipated 4-day charity abseil, brave fundraisers from across the Southwest and beyond will climb the tower's 205 steps and descend from the top of this iconic monument dressed as their favourite historical figures. Before touching down at the base of the tower they will be able to savour breath-taking views across the surrounding counties.
To participate, each abseiler is required to pay a £20 deposit to cover Aardvark Endeavours Instructors fees and raise £100 per person. To enter as an individual or team, please visit: https://www.sosafrica.com/alfreds-tower-abseil
