Abseils and zip slides
Charity abseils and zip slides continue to provide exhilaration and excitement to thousands of charity supporters and a significant income to charities year after year. The Outer Edge specialises in these exciting events and pride ourselves on the highest safety standards and level of professionalism. Our prices are very competitive and you can be sure of a smoothly run day. We have extensive public liability insurance and provide top quality specialist equipment, experienced qualified staff as well as thinking about all the little extras that allow you to relax and wait for the sponsorship money to come rolling in!
Our instructors are not only highly qualified, experienced and provide the highest standard of technical expertise but they are also adept at supporting people who are struggling with the challenge ahead. We know how hard your supporters have worked to raise their sponsorship and how daunting it may be to make that descent. We can cater for small groups or hundreds of people and deliver a personalised approach for individuals with disabilities to ensure their total comfort and confidence. We create a relaxed and fun environment in which to allow your supporters to have what may be one of the most exhilarating experiences of their lives.
We have a list of venues that we know well but we are always happy to come out to a venue of your choice if there’s somewhere else specific you have in mind. We conduct thorough site inspections prior to your event and provide you with a comprehensive and rigorous risk-assessment.
Zip slides are an exciting and relatively new alternative to the well known charity abseil. Your supporters will race down the wire at speeds of up to 30mph – one of the most awesome thrills you will experience! These events are ideal for charities who can recruit high numbers of participants due to the numbers of people we can cater for in one day.
If you’ve done charity abseils time and time again and your supporters are looking for something new to try – we can work with you to plan something just that little bit different. Perhaps a night-time abseil, a tandem abseil for couples, an extreme abseil for those with a very good head for heights, a free space abseil … or perhaps, instead of the usual building or cliff, we could hold your abseil at a dam, viaduct, sports stadium, bridges or even down through a waterfall!
