We have convinced a group of school staff, governors and parents to jump out of a plane at 13,000ft in March to help raise funds to save our school and community swimming pool. Please support us, every penny is hugely appreciated.

Story

Leonard Stanley Primary is lucky enough to have a school swimming pool, that is used by both pupils and our local community during the summer months. The pool has been around for decades, and is a much loved community asset.

Due to subsidence and cracks caused by extreme weather in recent years, we have had to close the pool, and we are now embarking on a huge campaign to rebuild and reopen, to restore it to its former glory.

We need to raise nearly £60,000 - and so have convinced some staff, parents, governors and even our local counsellor to overcome their fears and jump out of a plane to help us raise these much needed funds.

The long-term loss of our beloved swimming pool would be a tragedy, so please support the Team Leonard Stanley Skydivers!
