Yesterday I was up at Red Head on the Arbroath Sea Cliffs running an abseil for Ian, Irene, Kitty and Olesya. Ian had organised the abseil as a fund raiser for the Save the Children charity.

Red Head is the highest point of the Angus Coast and the abseil was around 90m, approximately 300ft. The first 50m or so was on a vertical to overhanging cliff and the lower part on a very steep bank to reach the beach. Irene and Kitty were first time abseilers and did very well to take a very adventurous abseil in their strides. Thanks to all those who came to help out and support.
