*** EDIT 14/09/2009 - So everyone - we did it! It was an absolutely amazing experience for everyone who jumped and we all had thoroughly brilliant day! Thank you to everyone who donated - we managed to meet our target for this very worthwhile cause.

Photos from the day cn be viewed here http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/album.php?aid=106842&id=581134116&ref=mf

If you still want to donate you can do - this page will remain open for a little while yet.

Thanks - from all at Team DMC & Co. x

*** EDIT 08/09/2009 - Please note the target amount has been altered as team member Sue Quinn has her own Just Giving page so we have reflected the totals on this page so they do not double count the money she has raised via her own page http://www.justgiving.com/Sue-Quinn/

We would just like to thank everyone who has supported the team during fundraising and a huge thankyou goes to everyone who has donated. The jump is just 4 days away now and we are all (sort of) looking forward to it! We're still a little bit away from our target so if you are able to donate it would be hugely appreciated.

Photos will be available by request from next week.

Huge thanks

xx Team DMC and Co xx

Thanks for taking the time to visit the Barnsley DMC and Co JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.

After Craig's ideas to do something crazy for charity and Melissa not even wanting to go horseriding, we eventually decided on the least terrifying activity of tandem skydiving! For Melissa who can't event get on the escalator in Debenham's at Meadowhall without feeling a bit funny and Jo who is scared of heights, this is going to be a challenge of a lifetime for everyone involved.

The money raised for the jump will go to the very worthwhile cause of Leukaemia Care who support the quality of life for sufferers of blood and lymphatic cancers. We are sure everyone will know of at least one person who has been touched by this illness, so please dig deep and give generously. Any donation, big or small will be hugely appreciated and for every little bit more donated means Melissa cannot back out!!!

Most of us will be getting videos of the day and we promise that anyone who donates will get to watch the videos to have a good laugh at the terror in our eyes.
