Bradford Hospitals’ Charity is asking people to take the plunge and abseil down Bradford Royal Infirmary’s new hospital wing.

The charity abseil, which has a superhero theme, will take place on Saturday. September 22 at the hospital in Duckworth Lane.

Hayley Collis, Head of Fundraising for Bradford Hospitals’ Charity, said: “Every single day our doctors and nurses prove they are the best superheroes of all.

"We would invite people to dress as their real life superheroes or as fictional superheroes. But most importantly, we ask everyone to raise as much money as possible to enable us to continue to support patients and their families in Bradford.”

Bradford Hospitals’ Charity works in partnership with Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust to support specialist equipment, training and research.

To sign up for the abseil, visit bradfordhospitalscharity.org/event/abseil-bradford-teaching-hospitals.

Entry is £10 for under 18s and £20 for adults, with a minimum sponsorship of £100.
