Story
On 30th August, I will be jumping out of a perfectly good plane at 15,000 feet in tandem with someone who hopefully knows what they’re doing! I‘m hoping to raise £500 that will equally be split between 2 charities and below is a bit of info about them.
1. Daventry Demcafé was created to provide a social get together and support group for patients and carers living with dementia. Run by a dedicated group of volunteers (which include my parents) it provides a friendly and welcoming environment to enjoy a cuppa, music and activities to keep the mind active and also information and support for carers. Day trips have included theatre, garden centres and boat trips and any funds raised would go towards helping run this fantastic group.
2. Jo‘s Trust is the only UK charity dedicated to women, their families and friends affected by cervical cancer and cervical abnormalities. Their vision is to make cervical cancer a thing of the past.
So why am I jumping out of a plane from 15,000 feet? I still haven’t found the answer to this other than why not!! Please donate to my causes, any amount will help these two worthwhile charities. Thank you 👍

6 years agoWell I did it, the fear disappeared as soon as we jumped from the plane. The exhilaration of freefall at 120mph was indescribable and was over far too quickly. Then the parachute opens (thankfully 😂) and it all goes peaceful and serene. Chatting with your instructor and admiring the amazing Devon/Dorset/Somerset views as you float down to terra firma, a quick landing position practice (get those legs up!) and then all of a sudden your on the ground with THE biggest grin on your face!
