More than 60 brave supporters took on an incredible challenge, abseiling down the iconic Coventry Cathedral to raise vital funds for The Myton Hospices.
So far, an incredible £40,592 has been raised, and there’s still sponsorship coming in! We are truly grateful to everyone who took part and supported this year’s event.
Natalie Walker, Events and Campaigns Manager at The Myton Hospices, said:
We are incredibly grateful to each and every person who joined us and braved their fears and stepped out of their comfort zone – quite literally – to raise vital funds for Myton. Your support means more people can access the specialist palliative and end of life care they need and deserve. We cannot thank you enough!
We would like to extend a huge thank you to everyone who helped make this year’s abseil such a success. Special thanks go to Redpoint for their invaluable support, ensuring the safety of all our participants.
Thank you to our amazing volunteer bakers and Margaret’s Country Kitchen Bakers, Bakers Dozen and Dawn Foods who donated delicious home baked goodies.
We are also grateful to our photographers Simon Coates Photography, Viv Porteous and Dylan Hanby.

We’d like to say a big thank you to all of our fabulous performers, who generously gave their time to keep spirits high and energy buzzing throughout the day: Daniel Mitchell, Bill & Pete Goulding, Nick Ransford, David Seeley and Kirsty Leslie.
And last but by no means least, thank you to our wonderful volunteers. We couldn’t put on such amazing events without your support.
It costs over £15 million every year to provide our services free of charge to our patients and their loved ones. As a charity, with less than 20% of our funding coming from the NHS, we must raise more than £12 million this year.
We rely on the support of our local community and events like the abseil make a huge difference. Our vital work simply wouldn’t be possible without our incredible supporters. Thank you!
