Story

<p>Me? Jumping out of a plane? 15,000ft up? Are you on drugs?!</p> <p>Watch as I swoop majestically through the clouds, my aerodynamically shaped nose cutting through the wind like a human version of concord before landing with all the grace of a suet pudding......</p> <p>Ok, the reality is I suffer from vertigo and the thought of doing this terrifies me.....but the fact that the proceeds will go to a great cause takes the edge off the fear. A bit.</p> <p>Thanks for taking time to read this, and rest assured your money will go to help young musicians realise their full potential!! THANK YOU!!</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails.
