SHA Skydive · 16 May 2020

Scottish Huntington's Association supports families impacted by Huntington’s disease (HD). 800 people in Scotland have HD with a further 3200 at risk of developing it in the future. HD impacts the ability to walk, talk and swallow, can cause mental illness and affects mood, memory and mobility.

Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page.

On 22nd May 2021 I will be taking part in a tandem skydive to raise money for the Scottish Huntington’s Association.

My reason for doing this is that I want to raise awareness of the condition, how it affects people’s lives and the lives of their families. It is something that is close to my heart as I work with individuals with a diagnosis of Huntington’s disease and have seen what a destructive disease it is. 

Any donations would be much appreciated and would be put to good use by the charity. Alongside my Just Giving page I will also be raising money by doing outside events such as a Winter Market at my place of work and other fundraising events. 

Huntington’s disease is an inherited disease that causes the progressive breakdown of nerve cells in the brain. Huntington’s disease has a massive impact on someone’s functional abilities usually resulting in movement, thinking (cognitive) & psychiatric disorders. Unfortunately there is still no cure for this disease. 

Family, friends & the public are all welcome to come along and watch my skydive at Strathallan Airfield on 22nd May 2021!!! ✈️
