An Experience You Will Never Forget
It was amazing! I’ll never forget that nerve-wracking moment of stepping over the edge but it was worth it for the huge sense of achievement when I got to the bottom.
– Charlotte – Arcelormittal Orbit AbseilerWhy Should I Abseil for Legasee?
Legasee is a team of volunteer film makers, writers, designers and storytellers who are passionate about capturing our military heritage in an increasingly fast-moving consumer society. We provide students, teachers and researchers with unique access to a hi-definition video archive of interviews with Veterans of military conflict from 1939 to the present day.
We interview men and women who have interesting military stories. Individually every person we meet will share something amazing. Collectively they’re a priceless record of modern military history. If you think the work we’re doing is important, please sign up and support us.
