Rev Kay and her kind-hearted group from the church scaled all 361 feet of the Forth Bridge - and then carefully plummeted to the surface below during a thrilling abseil. The vertigo-defying quintet were raising funds for church charity Crossreach, which offers support to some of the most vulnerable people in Scotland. The abseilers collected an impressive £1600 through sponsorship and donations and Rev Kay wishes to thank everyone who contributed in any fashion to their fantastic final total.
