"If you’ve got the chutzpa you should do it!”
Last month, over 90 intrepid fundraisers as they made their way down the White Collar Factory building in London’s Old Street to support UCLH Charity.
Among them was inspirational 84 year old Angela who abseiled down the building.
Angela was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian in May 2025 and recently had surgery. She is now in remission, and is still undergoing treatment at UCLH - University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
Angela said, “I saw the event advertised at the Cancer Centre about three weeks ago and I thought well, the event is only three bus stops from my flat and it really is the cowards way out as all I have to do is stand still and there would be lots of people looking after me, so I signed up! The hardest part was walking up the gallows!
“I am pleased with myself for doing it - and my friends have been so generous in supporting me on my Just Giving page."
Well done, Angela, and thank you for helping us do more! 💙
