Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Our group of Point to Point Riders will be taking to the skies parachute jumping on the 31st July @ 8am, which has been re-arranged due to the weather. More time to donate!
Those jockeys include Zac Baker, (ex) Pete Mann, Johnny Bailey, Leo Mahon, Joe Hill, Sam Davies-Thomas, Fergus Gregory, Jack Andrews, Tom David, James King, Patrick Gerety, John Mathias.
We are all doing this for the IJF which is a fantastic charity for all jockeys and as P2P jockeys we are very lucky to have their support. Since the charity was founded it has helped over 1000 jockeys and the families when injured or in general need and now has two rehabilitation centres which provide treatment.
You may well think that adrenalin junkies that fly round fields on horses at the weekends would be looking forward to the idea of jumping out of a plane but I can assure you that the thought terrifies us. For example when approached about the idea Johnny Bailey said he was absolutely terrified by the idea, and only agreed to take part as it was supporting the IJF which is the same for us all....fear and trepidation!!
As a group we are funding the jump ourselves so that all proceeds raised will be donated to the IJF unlike many skydives where the jump is funded by the money raised. The cost of the jump is £279 per person.
We would be extremely grateful if you could donate to this fantastic charity, and for us too give what we can to a charity that has and will continue to help so many.
Thank you for your time.
