About the abseil challenge event

Experience the beauty of the peak district with an abseil down the Millers Dale Viaduct, whilst raising vital funds to give people living in the most disadvantaged areas of the country the literacy skills they need to succeed.

You control the speed of your descent, so enjoy the breath-taking wild peaks and rugged moorland in some of the most stunning countryside in the UK.

Why fundraise for the National Literacy Trust?

We know that poverty and low literacy go hand-in-hand.

Children who are growing up with the stress of not having enough food and living in cold and damp housing are not well equipped to develop strong literacy skills. Through our literacy hubs, we aim to target the communities where there are a high number of economically disadvantaged families, giving them free access to resources and support to help them boost their children's literacy skills.

It is vital that we act now to give this generation of children a positive future.
