Sky Dive · 4 September 2009

We can all face problems that seem complicated or intimidating. At Citizens Advice, we believe no one should have to face these problems alone. Through expert advice and support, we give people the knowledge and confidence they need to find a way forward - whoever they are, whatever their problem.

Story

Dear Friends, family and colleagues and anyone else i have managed to blackmail/coerce into looking at this page


On September 4th I have the unenviable pleasure (considering i am not a fan of heights) of skydiving out of a plane strapped to a Red Devil! (the official parachute display team of the PARAS and the British Army).

To do this, I need to raise a minimum of £500 for the Citizen Advice Bureau who are celebrating their 70th year providing free, impartial advice helping real people with real issues. 

CABs are currently struggling to cope with the demand placed on their services due to the increase of people seeking assistance due to the impact of the recession, so they really need your donations.

In 2008/09 the Cab serviucee saw the following increases when compared to the previous year


 

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 UK 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.



Thank you for your support.

Jim
