BLSAxQMSU Take the Plunge for London’s Air Ambulance

Our VP Barts & The London, QMSU President and BLSA Disabled & SLD Rep abseiled down the side of The Royal London Hospital.

Last weekend, Maria (VP Barts & The London), Diya (QMSU President), and Adila (BLSA Disabled & SLD Rep) took fundraising to new heights - literally - by abseiling down the side of The Royal London Hospital to support London's Air Ambulance.

The team faced nerves, adrenaline, and plenty of laughs as they took the plunge, proving that when they commit, there’s no turning back. After the absail they said it was equal parts terrifying and exhilarating, and a perfect metaphor for the year ahead: taking the leap, trusting the process, and enjoying the ride.

Want to support their daring feat? You can donate via their fundraising page here.
Every contribution helps London’s Air Ambulance continue its lifesaving work and they aim to raise £1000 for this worthy cause. Here’s to more adventures this year, hopefully with a little less dangling off tall buildings!
