National Lift Tower, Northampton
Afternoon – 23rd May

Ready to step over the edge?

Join us for one of the most unique charity challenges in the UK.

On 23rd May, you will descend 400ft down the iconic National Lift Tower in Northampton — the tallest permanent abseil tower in the world.
This is not a fun run.
This is not a gentle walk.

This is vertical.

The Tower

Standing at 418ft, the National Lift Tower was built in the 1980s as a lift testing facility.

Today, it has been preserved and repurposed for extreme abseil events.

You will descend from a structure few people ever get to access.

One controlled step.
One steady descent.
One serious achievement.

The event is delivered by The National Abseil Team, with fully qualified instructors managing the day.

No experience needed.
Full safety briefing provided.
All technical equipment supplied.

You bring the courage.
