What Can We Do For You?

We have set up Zip Lines for high profile events such as the IAAF World Championships in London and at Chiswick Park where we delivered a two day Zip Line Event.

In 2017 the IAAF approached us regarding the Closing Ceremony of the World Atheltics Championships being held at The Olympic Stadium in London, with a view to having the games mascot ‘Hero The Hedgehog’ zip wired into the stadium. Overnight we set up a twin line Zip to enable Hero the Hedgehog to traverse the Stadium as a closing stunt. The Zip Line required split second timings to meet televised event timelines and had to be disassembled in under three minutes.

In 2019 the Enjoy Work Team at Chiswick Park invited us back to do a repeat of a two day Zip Line Event we succesfully delivered in 2018. The event was originally a challenge due to the topography and length of zip, but a huge success for the lucky 240 participants who dared to take the leap of faith.

In June 2019 'We Work' at St Katharine Docks wanted to get in on the action, so we set up a Zip Line from 1 St Katharine's Way across the docks that threw a fresh perspective on commuting!

Administering a work at height project is a serious undertaking that requires significant preparation, properly inspected equipment, and well trained operators in adequate numbers. Please research in detail, check references, H&S Policy, Equipment Logs, RA's, Method Statements and enjoy a safe, well managed and enjoyable event.

A fundraising abseil should be planned and executed in the same way as an industry work at height project. Except, additional controls are required to manage clients who are unfamiliar with systems and with operating at height.

Whether a charity, an individual, or a corporate group both you (the employer) and us (the contractor) must comply with the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999. If this is new to you don't be alarmed, one of our NEBOSH qualified Project Managers will guide you safely through the process.

Additionally, our consultants are highly experienced having, in recent years provided technical expertise on the UK’s biggest fund raising projects on some of our tallest and most iconic structures. All of our operators are qualified Rope Access Supervisors in accordance with BS7985/ISO 22846-2.
