Heroes on the Hospital Walls

Any thrill seekers out there looking for their next challenge?

On Saturday 11th of April 2026 Chuf and The Great North Children’s Hospital Fund (GNCH Fund), part of Newcastle Hospitals Charity, are partnering to bring an exciting abseil challenge, offering you the chance to abseil almost 70ft off the roof of The Great North Children’s Hospital (GNCH) at the RVI, in aid of Chuf and GNCH Fund.

The abseil costs £35 to enter and we ask our fundraisers to pledge to raise £150. All proceeds will go towards supporting children and their families undergoing treatment at the Freeman Hospital’s Children’s Heart Unit and The Great North Children’s Hospital.

Anyone aged 10 years old or older can take part.

You could even do this dressed as your favourite superhero if you are up to it! ‍

Places are limited so click here to sign up today!

So what are you waiting for? Take the leap. Be the hero. Help children fight their toughest battles!

Fancy taking on this abseil challenge with colleagues? We also have a few slots available on Friday 10th of April 2026, ideal for our corporate supporters who are brave enough. If you are interested in this date, please contact events@chuf.org.uk.
