About the event

Lloyd's is set to launch their iconic and thrilling abseil challenge on the 8th and 9th of July 2026

This exclusive opportunity is available only to the top fundraisers of the British Red Cross, thanks to our ongoing partnership with Lloyd's.

Abseil down the iconic Lloyd’s building while raising money for the important work we do. This unique experience is open to everyone who is over 18 and reasonably fit and healthy. No previous experience is needed as there will be a team of abseiling experts on hand to show you the ropes.

The event is free to register for British Red Cross fundraisers, and you must commit to a £350 fundraising target.

Our disaster fund enables the British Red Cross to respond swiftly and timely to emergencies all around the globe. In 2025, the disaster fund enabled us to respond to 129 disasters.
