Would you scale a building to help raise money for a charity?

Edward Bates did just that when he undertook a challenge that saw him climbing over the O2 millennium building in Greenwich to raise money for the Norfolk and Norwich Association for the Blind.

Standing at 170ft tall and with a 30 degree angle ascent it was not a task for the faint-hearted.

RNIB Connect Radio’s Simon Pauley chats to Edward to find out why fundraising is so important to him.
