Story

A group of fearless Macmillan supporters will take to the skies in April, taking part in a tandem skydive at Bridlington Airfield, East Yorkshire to raise vital funds for Macmillan Cancer Support.

The Macmillan Annual Raceday is held in June annually, it is the oldest and largest charity raceday in the UK, raising over £9.5 million in its 50 year history for people living with cancer. The Jump of their lives is an important element of fundraising activity, and this year is no different as a new group of fearless fundraisers jump from a plane to support people living with cancer.

Skydivers will be invited to join us at the Charity Raceday to enjoy a day of racing action on the Kavesmire as well as hospitality from York racecourse and receive their fundraising and skydiving certificates. You can apply to take part in the 2023 Jump of their Lives applications close on Tuesday 28 February here: https://www.yorkracecourse.co.uk/news-take-to-the-skies-in-2023-in-aid-of-macmillan-cancer-support.html
