Tandem Skyline Parachute · 21 April 2012

The Mental Health Foundation believe no-one living in the UK should be deprived of the opportunity for good mental health because ​of who they are, the community they come from or where they live​. We’re developing better ways to support good mental health in every community.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am raising money for the mental health foundation by jumping 10,000ft in a Tandem Skydive! I would strongly appriciate your help to raising my target of £500.00 for The Mental Health Foundation.

I believe Mental Heath is extremely important and unlike many illnesses, mental health can often go unnoticed.

With my skydive I hope to raise money and awareness of The Mental Heath Foundation.

Thankyou.

Event Date: 12th May 2012
Arrival Time: 12pm
Venue: Black Knights Parachute Centre, Lancaster.

THE DIVE IS COMPLETE!
Sitting on the edge of that plane at 14,000ft and plummeting into freefall was utterly terrifying. I fell for 90s with nothing but weight and gravity on my back, falling at 1000ft every 10 seconds at around 130mph before falling under a parachute for another 5ish minutes and landing back, safely, at the skydive centre.

Would I do it again? Yes, tomorrow!

Thanks for all of your support. I am planning a shark cage dive next!
