Love In Action was started in memory of Wilma Allan, an incredible lady who challenged herself to be better and help others. She proved that love is an action. Tomorrow the abseiling team take on an incredible and daunting challenge of abseiling down Mont Orgueil Castle.
Text 'LIAJ57 £3' to 70070 to donate to Jersey Child Care Trust. It would amazing if we could raise £60 via text today on what would have been Wilma's 60th Birthday. Xo

4 DAYS UNTIL THE ABSEIL!!
Trudi is also flying in from Scotland to do the abseil on saturday, she's pretty nervous but determined to challenge herself to put love in action. Read on to find out why she's taking part.

What would be your words of encouragement be to the other abseilers if they get nervous on the day?
Don't look down! Remember to breath (I forgot that and I think I held my breath the whole way down my first practice abseil!). And remember it's all for great causes and in memory of a lovely lady.

What made you sign up to take part in this challenge?
I wanted to do something in memory of your mum especially as I wasn't able to go to her funeral. I also wanted to support your chosen charities and this seemed like a good challenge as I'm petrified of heights. It was also a good excuse to come and see you all Jersey!

Have you ever abseiled before? Are you nervous for this challenge?
I've never abseiled and never thought I would. I'm terrified!
