🧗‍♂️ From the heights of Tottenham to the heart of the community



I’m abseiling from the roof of Tottenham Hotspur Stadium – and I need your support!

On 27 June 2025, I’ll be stepping out over the edge of one of the most iconic stadiums in world football to take on the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium Abseil Challenge – and I’m doing it in support of a cause that’s genuinely close to my heart.


Yes, that’s right… I’ll be harnessed up and free-falling down the side of the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium – all 50 metres of it (that’s about 164 feet, or roughly 27 of me stacked on top of each other). Not exactly how I pictured spending a Friday in June!

Why I’m doing it


As a lifelong Spurs fan, grassroots football coach, and proud member of the Cheshunt community, I’ve always admired the work of the Tottenham Hotspur Foundation. Their commitment to creating opportunities and tackling inequality resonates deeply with me, and I’ve seen firsthand how football can inspire real change.


Growing up in Cheshunt, I had the privilege of watching Spurs players train just down the road at Brookfield Lane. I still remember catching glimpses of legends like Ray Clemence, Gary Mabbutt, Mark Falco, Glenn Hoddle, Clive Allen, Ossie Ardiles, and Ricky Villa. It was magical.


Fast-forward to today, and the Club’s state-of-the-art training complex now sits proudly just a few minutes away – a reminder of how strong the bond remains between Tottenham Hotspur and our local area. This challenge is my way of giving back.


What your support will help achieve


The Tottenham Hotspur Foundation is the official charity of the Club – and it’s not just about football. The Foundation delivers targeted programmes in education, employment, health, and community engagement, reaching over 10,000 individuals in 2024 alone.


Your donations go directly towards:


  • Helping young people into education, training, and employment

  • Supporting individuals with physical and mental health needs

  • Promoting healthy lifestyles and active communities

  • Improving access and inclusion for those living with disabilities

  • Tackling social inequality across North London and beyond


In 2024, the Foundation generated an incredible £20.4 million in social value. That’s what I’m supporting – and you can help me go even further.

A view from the top


As part of this once-in-a-lifetime experience, I’ll also be taking part in the Dare Skywalk – a breathtaking tour around the stadium’s rooftop, offering panoramic views of London before the big drop. I’m not sure what will take my breath away more – the view or the fact I’ll be dangling from a rope shortly after!


Some people do this for thrills. Some to conquer a fear. Others for the story. For me, it’s a mix of all three – but most importantly, it’s about supporting a charity that builds brighter futures, one opportunity at a time.


👉 Come on, let’s make it count – donate here:


Final whistle


Whether you give £5 or £50, every single donation goes towards empowering those who need it most. Together, we can support young people, promote health and wellbeing, and help build stronger, more inclusive communities.


And if nothing else, you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing you played your part while I was hanging off the roof of the stadium I love most. COYS!


Thank you in advance for your kindness and generosity.
