The Gibraltar Branch of Cancer Research UK (CRUK) will be holding an Abseil on Saturday 1st September at Europort Building 6 to raise funds for CRUK.

The Abseil will be run by volunteers from the Gibraltar Fire & Rescue Service and Airport Fire & Rescue Service.

A spokesperson for the Gibraltar Branch of Cancer Research UK: "This is the first time the charity organises an abseil to raise funds and as for all our other events the response has been fantastic with the charity having to close applications before the deadline, having 46 fundraising participants taking part in this challenge. 

"Volunteers from the Gibraltar Fire & Rescue Service together with the Airport Fire & Rescue Service will be very kindly giving up their free time to conduct and assist with the abseil. It promises to be both a different and exciting event whilst at the same time helping raising such vital funds. Please come down on Saturday to support all the abseil participants and volunteers as from 9am."
