Story

On February 1st 2019 I intend to feel the " wind beneath my wings" by allowing myself to fly through the sky, free falling for a moment before my parachute opens, bringing me back down to earth.

Imagine not having that support from my training partner ?

Imagine not having the specialist equipment allowing me to fly, keeping me safe?

My "Parachute"

......the children and families of our region need our support and the equipment provided to them by the Sunshine fund to enhance their everyday lives not just a moment in time. I believe every child should have equal opportunity to a safe and happy fulfilled life. If they want to "fly"..help them to do it!

Am I scared or worried about doing this? of course I am but unlike some of these families  I'm not faced with the same worries everyday .

Seeing a smile on a child's face makes it  all worthwhile.

 Applications are being made now more than ever to the fund ....any donation you make is of great value so thank you.
