Tired of the same old routine?

2 November 2022

Are you tired of the same old routine every weekend? Do you long to do something different and put some excitement into your life? Then Willow Wood may have the answer with one of our great challenge events!

How about diving with sharks – you’re not even in a cage, just up close and personal with the apex predators of the sea! We still have some places left for this bucket list challenge on Saturday 10 March, and there’s no need to worry if you’ve never been scuba diving before as training is part of the package.

Alternatively, how about abseiling down the landmark IKEA building – it’s an incredible feeling climbing over the edge with nothing but two ropes to keep you secure. Safety is paramount however, and specialist company Rope Race will keep you safe and sound as you abseil down the 140 foot high building on Saturday 28 April.

Not high enough? Then the following day you can jump from a plane at 10,000 feet! Demand has been so high for our Tandem Skydives that we’re holding two such days this year, on 29 April and 4 August, but like all these challenge events places are strictly limited.

For more information go to our events diary, or contact Chris on 0161 330 7788 or chris.hayden@willowwood.org.uk.
