Cornish Charity Cornwall Hospice Care are challenging you to take the part in the flight before Christmas! Be a Soaring Santa on the 2nd December and tackle a Zip Wire Safari in the famous red suit.

If you fancy something a little bit different to kick start the 2023 festive season or are looking for a way to help fund your local adult hospice this Christmas this is the event for you. Taking place at Via Ferrata near Penryn – West Cornwall’s longest zip wire adventure!

After a course on the training zips with a qualified instructor, you are able to set off around the quarry at a pace to suit you.

Channel your inner Santa Claus by soaring through the air on 3 giant zip wires and scrambling around the quarry.

The Zip Wire Safari allows for 1.5 hours of adrenalin filled fun, plenty of time for confidence building and thrill-seeking alike, take as much or as little time soaring like santa.

It’s all to raise money for Mount Edgcumbe and St Julia’s Hospices!

You pay your registration fee of £20 and raise a minimum of £80 in sponsorship.

There is a family (2 adults + 2 children) rate of registration fee £50 with sponsorship of £250. If you’re thinking of signing up as a group, perhaps with colleagues or friends please get in touch with Cornwall Hospice Care to discuss a group rate. alewis@cornwallhospice.co.uk
