In October, to raise funds for the Region's project, Licking Lassa Fever (see below), Dee Jenkins, Nerys Lines, Cherry Wright, Geraldine Jones, Joan Preece, Viv Hanford, Ann Hodgson and Sue Thomas (plus Sue's daughter, Katie), representing Brecon, Cardiff, Neath, Newport and Swansea clubs, joined forces to take up the Zip wire challenge. It took place at Llangorse Lake amid the beautiful Brecon Beacons.

Dee Jenkins said, "Sue's daughter was the bravest; she climed a 64-foot pole to do the final wire. Ann Hodgson was the bravest adult, completing 11 wires. Me? I was scared stiff!"
