Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm sorry to bug you again - I don't seem to have a particularly large pool of friends.   The team at Hall & Woodhouse (the company I work for)  are seeking to raise over £250k for children's hospices in the South of England over the next two years and this is my effort to contribute to that goal.  

I'll match the first £300 raised personally (and I'm paying for the skydive myself so every penny goes direct to 'the kids').   If you could help out I'd be very grateful.  

It's seriously scary stuff - at 12,000 feet you're pushed relentlessly by the parachute guy towards the door in the plane and every instinct is screaming to fight back.   Then you're hanging over the void and then you're plunging earthwards.   The very though makes me sweat.  And this is the list time I'm every going to do it.  Enough is enough.

  Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
