Skydiving for Motor Neurone Disease Association · 27 March 2013

Motor Neurone Disease moves fast. It takes away time, it takes away independence and it has no cure. Every day we support people affected by MND. We fund ground-breaking research. We campaign for better care. We’re here for everyone who needs us. Because with MND, every day matters.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my page.

So I'm doing this skydive to raise money for MNDA because not only is it a great cause but also brought to the forefront of our attention since one of our colleagues has been diagnosed with the illness. So dig deep!

Truth is I've always wanted to throw myself out of an aeroplane with a stranger strapped to my back. Apparently I'm not allowed to do it in the nude as that would upset the instructor and many hundreds of potential onlookers on the ground below. Ridiculous I know, but thems the rules. Given that I was going to do it anyway I'm going to pop in what it would have cost me. How's that for generosity? Yeah don't get used to it. Dimension Data are putting £50 in too. I've been assured that doesn't affect my bonus at the end of the year. Phew. So anyway I hate these things too, "sponsor me for enjoying myself", "sponsor me for eating this club sandwich", what a load of rubbish but hey, I've given to enough of them over the years (you know who you are) so now it's your turn. It's just giving to charity at the end of the day so suck it up!

Anyway that's quite enough waffle. Thanks! (Except for the joker who's only going to put 50p in. Shame on you.)

Oh and we're doing it as a team - https://www.justgiving.com/teams/dddive - 35? of us.
