Visit the charity's profileJoin RNIB for our Big Jump in 2018. You’ll be part of a massive team taking to the skies on Sunday 23 September to mark the end of National Eye Health Week 2018 and raising vital funds and awareness for RNIB in our 150th year.
Skydiving is the sensory experience of a lifetime. The unique sensation of freefalling through the sky as the wind rushes past your ears, the magnificent aerial views of Earth, and the overwhelming emotion as your parachute releases and you glide back to solid ground.
We want everyone to join us for this challenge. Whether you’re blind, partially sighted, or sighted; we want all our RNIB skydivers to support each other and face their fears together. Everyone will jump tandem with a trained instructor so no one will go it alone.
Every day in the UK, 250 people start to lose their sight. Their lives will change completely and far too many people are left alone to cope. Right now, we can only reach one in three people who need our support. By jumping with Team RNIB, you’ll be helping to make sure no one is left to face sight loss on their own.
