On Thursday 10 October 2025, we’re heading to The Kelpies in Falkirk, Scotland, for a day of adventure, connection, and fundraising. This unique experience is your chance to climb inside the world’s largest equine sculptures followed by a thrilling descent, all while helping raise vital funds to support older people facing loneliness.
 
What is The Kelpies Challenge?
The Kelpies Experience is an exhilarating guided aerial journey through these iconic sculptures. You’ll climb into the horse’s head via a network of ladders, platforms, and safety cables, enjoying incredible views along the way. Then, you choose how you descend – either with a free-hanging abseil or the breathtaking Quick Flight rope drop. It’s a challenge like no other and it’s all in support of our work bringing companionship and connection to older people.
 
Who can take part? 
 This is a brilliant opportunity for supporters and colleagues – enter as a team of four or eight for an unforgettable shared experience. Whether you’re in it purely for adrenaline, team spirit, or the chance to make a difference, this challenge is open to everyone.
