Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

One evening at the pub a friend asked if I would ever consider skydiving for charity, one week later I'm signed up to a 15,000ft jump for Contact the Elderly.

Please help me to fundraise as much as possible to support this amazing charity.

Who they are and what they do...

Half of all people aged 75 and over live alone, and 1 in 10 people aged 65 or over say they are always, or often feel lonely – that’s just over a million people. Contact the Elderly are committed to alleviating the negative impacts of loneliness in people over the age of 75 through tea party groups.

Supported by a network of volunteers, Contact the Elderly organises free monthly Sunday afternoon tea parties for small groups of older people aged 75 and over, who live alone, offering a regular and vital friendship link every month, for many older guests the tea party trip may well be their only social outing in the whole month. So you can be safe in the knowledge that your donation will make a very tangible difference to isolated elderly people in your community.

Fundraising is vital to our service and without people like you supporting us we would be unable to support older people in combatting loneliness and isolation amongst this particular group.

Dig deep everyone and thank you so much!
See you at the bottom.....
