This is also the last year Guys Hospital will be hosting the abseil, so don’t miss this amazing opportunity. Email abseil@childsifoundation.org to get on the list.

Just Walk 2011 – 07 May 2011
This event is great for anyone who is keen to get their walking boots on and hike for Child’s i – you can choose either 10km, 20km, 40km or 60km routes – so something for everybody. This walk offers enthusiastic walkers the chance to experience a breathtaking charity walk over the picturesque South Downs in West Sussex and generate funds for their chosen charity. But be mind full this is no walk in the park as walkers Jennifer and Pippa highlight in their video from this years event! To find out more visit the Across the Divide website.
London to Paris Cycle – May 11th-15th 2011
The cycle event for London to Paris is now open. This year we saw 5 brave cyclists take on the cycle and they all came back buzzing about their experience. If you would like to find out more about the London to Paris Cycle you can visit the Skyline website or email Perle@childsifoundation.org
Back in April 2009, a small team of supporters plucked up the courage to jump out of a plane for Child¹s i Foundation. Founder Lucy Buck did it and would (to quote her own word) “Never do it again ever”, while many of the others loved it! If jumping out of a plane is on your bucket list, get in touch with Perle@childsifoundation.org to get on the list for the next one.
