The Big QMC Abseil is back for 2025.
Our amazing fundraisers raised over £35,000 for Nottingham hospitals in 2024 and we want to make 2025 even better but we need your help. Grab your spot today and join us in September.
Please note, you will be redirected to Ticket Tailor to complete your registration for this event.
We're thrilled to be heading back to the top of the Queen's Medical Centre for another year of thrill-seeking action. So why get involved?
You'll meet fellow fundraisers who are also braving the drop and helping to support Nottingham hospitals through their fundraising efforts. After taking in the breath-taking 360° views from the top of QMC, you'll take on an experience like no other in Nottingham whilst being cheered on by your friends, family and colleagues.
Grab a friend and take on this incredible experience together as you'll both be able to make take on the descent at the same time.
How do I get involved?
Registration is just £30, which confirms your place at this year’s event, and we ask a minimum sponsorship commitment of just £150. When you register, you will be able to book your time slot and will receive a confirmation email from us confirming your place. Please make sure you check your spam inbox as sometimes our emails can end up there.
If you're joining us as a big group, please check that your chosen timeslot has enough spaces for everyone. Since each person needs to register individually, we recommend booking as soon as you pick your timeslot to make sure no one misses out.
If you're a larger group, get in touch with us, and we’ll be happy to arrange this for you directly (subject to availability)! If you have any questions, just drop us an email at hello@nottinghamhospitalscharity.org.uk - we’re here to help!
What happens next?
We’ll be there with you every step of the way from the moment you register. Our Charity team will greet you at the top and bottom of QMC and help you find your group so you are ready for your briefing. We’ll cheer you on as you scale down the side of the QMC and once your feet are safely back on the ground, we’ll be ready and waiting for you at the bottom to present you with your very own certificate.
