Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I’ve never been one to shy away from a challenge; as challenges go jumping from a plane on my own is going to take all of my courage! I get 6 hours training before being taken up 3000ft in a tin can of a plane. I then have to shuffle to the edge, hooking my feet outside the bottom of the plane before forcing every muscle to dive out. If you have seen me attempt a sitting jump on a trampoline you will know that when I get scared I freeze! I’ve read all the statistics and stories where it has gone wrong, but I believe that to muster courage when you are faced with something that seems impossible makes us stronger.

Jumping out of a plane is a small hurdle to overcome and it is my choice, unlike the challenges the families that use Claire House have to face because life chose them. As I begin to freeze with fear, poised at the edge of the plane on the 13th (trying hard not to be superstitious), my thoughts will go the amazing people at Claire House and the families that will benefit from the funds raised.
