About

Leap of Faith is an exciting abseil from the top of the Bath Abbey tower. It's a stunning view at the top, a challenge on the way down and a wonderful sense of achievement at the bottom! This abseil adventure is a chance for participants to be brave and adventurous and to go outside of their comfort zone and raise much needed funds at the same time.

Your involvement in the Leap of Faith! will enable Bath Abbey and Genesis Trust to support the care of the Abbey – an iconic Christian landmark that provides worship services for all and pastoral care for the City of Bath and its visitors - and enable homeless and vulnerable people in the Bath area to find new beginnings and a better future.
Be brave and register as an early bird today for only £40 and book your place and your time slot. From 1 May the price will be £45.

Please then fundraise £150 for Genesis Trust and Bath Abbey.

This year we are abseiling on two days on Friday 13 and Saturday 14 June.

Your achievement will be photographed free of charge!

The abseil is for people aged 12 upwards - there is no upper age limit. It is a steep climb of 212 steps in a confined space so please consider carefully if you have any mobility or health conditions and speak to your doctor. We can accommodate people up to 20 stone in weight.
