 Four brave volunteers from local law firm Pinney Talfourd abseiled off the ArcelorMittal Orbit Tower in London’s Olympic Park for charity last Sunday.
The challenge became known as ‘Mike Drop’ after conveyancer Mike Robey let slip that he was petrified of heights and so his colleague Richard Collins volunteered him for this challenge.
However, Richard rose to the challenge and along with another two colleagues, signed up. They have raised almost £1,500 so far for Havering Association for People with Disabilities.
