Owner of the Lansdowne Hotel does biplane wing walk for Eastbourne charity
and live on Freeview channel 276
The Lansdowne has been owned and run by the same family for 111 years and is renowned for supporting local charities and good causes. Catherine is in the fourth generation of the family ownership and wanted to take charity fundraising to new heights.
Catherine explains: “Being strapped to a biplane and taken to the skies seemed very appropriate for Eastbourne charity ‘You Raise Me Up’. I wanted to undertake a unique challenge for this good cause with the aim of raising £2,000 in the process. It was a memorable experience with the climbs and drops taking the whole meaning of a rollercoaster to a new level!”

As for the next charity challenge Catherine is keeping this close to her chest, but perhaps may involve another family member with her efforts to grow The Lansdowne legacy further.
