Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. On the 1st April I will be doing a skydive for Barnsley Hospital Charity to raise money for the Rainbow Fund. I cant quite believe that I've signed my self up to jump out of a plane but I feel I couldn't have chosen a better cause to do it for. 

The Rainbow Fund supports families who have lost a baby. A rainbow baby is a baby born after miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, molar pregnancy, termination for medical reasons, stillbirth or neonatal death.

We have a room called the Rainbow Room but the funds will
also be used to provide activities and equipment for families to help and support them e.g. castings of foot and handprints, memory books, packs for siblings etc.

I have worked at Barnsley for over 5 years now and seeing the amazing things the charity has done for our trust has inspired me to get involved in the fund raising. I have also watched our volunteers do numerous events so I thought it was about time I joined in :)
