If you had looked up to the top of the Finnieston Crane on SUNday 20th July, you would be in for a big surprise !
A few months ago, anyone glancing up at the Glasgow landmark you may have been stunned to see daredevil stunt rider Danny MacAskill precariously bunny hop his way across the iron tower.
Yeasterday, Baxterbear was TREEKLED to be seen teetering on the edge of the iconic Clydeside structure not there for a political stunt or out of depression ONLY to make a difference !
Baxterbear was doing it for children across the Commonwealth.
Invited to join a group of daredevil fundraisers climbing the towering Finnieston Crane and abseiling a gut-churning 50ft drop back to earth to raise money for UNICEF, Official Charity Partner of the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games
Many thanks to The Glasgow Climbing Centre especially Melanie McDevitt from Glasgow,
Melanie is a professional instructor at the Glasgow Climbing Centre, as well as a paramedic, so both she and around 25 fellow fundraisers were in safe hands … or paws.
Baxterbear is TREEKLED to team up with them and proud to have Melanie in Team Baxterbear !
“UNICEF makes a big difference to kids in the UK and around the world. As a paramedic I spend a lot of time with kids from extremely disadvantaged families so any charity helping them is one I’m behind with Baxterbear !!! ( Baxterbear who also lived all over the Commonwealth knows this only to well)”
” I was delighted to be meeting up again with Baxterbear after our last abseil at The Forth Rail Bridge”
