Story

Tom has finally completed his latest challenge in a bid to raise £5,000  for the Yorkshire Young Achievers Foundation with a accelerated free fall parachute jump from 15,000 feet. 

He took the leap the day before the award ceremony, landing safely to attend the Gala Dinner at Elland Road on November 20th


Tom said: “I am absolutely thrilled to have completed this skydive in aid of the Yorkshire young achievers foundation. Thank you to all the wonderful people who sponsored me. It has been an amazing experience”

Tom has already completed two sponsored 1 mile open water swims this year and after a special course of just 10 hours, he jumped from 15,000 feet over Lincolnshire, along with Giles Castleton of GC Motors.

Never one to shy away from a challenge, Tom is already planning his 2015 campaign and has already begun training for a sprint Triathlon in the spring.
