Story

To mark my 60th birthday I decided to do a Tandem Skydive in memory of my son Ryan.  My Skydive is on 30 April 2023, close to Ryan's 35th Heavenly Birthday.

Ryan was killed on 28 July 2019 by a Hit and Run driver.  We have been petitioning ever since to change the law for this crime 'Ryans Law' , please see our Facebook page. My son is loved and missed by so many, our family has been left devastated.

Ryan has always raised money for charities and did a Skydive himself, so I thought I would follow his example. 

I chose Children's Hospice  South West as I know the pain and sadness a parent/s feel when you lose a child whatever their age.  If I can help in a small way to raise funds for this charity and enable them to continue in the amazing support they offer families, then I have managed to turn a positive from a negative in memory of Ryan.

Thank you
