Action Medical Research is delighted to introduce ‘Climb the Capital’ – London’s stair-climbing fundraising event, supporting four incredible charities: Action Medical Research, Over the Wall, The Felix Project and The Brain Tumour Charity.

Climb the Capital, set to take place on Saturday 5 October, is an exhilarating charity event where participants will ascend three of London's tallest skyscrapers on foot, all within a three-hour window. 

Participants will climb 475 metres up some of the Capital's most iconic skyscrapers: The Scalpel, The Leadenhall Building and 20 Fenchurch Street, finishing at The Sky Gardens. This unique experience invites individuals to push their physical and mental limits while raising vital funds for charities that make a significant impact in our communities.
