Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
On Wednesday 31 May 2017, 8 Trg Bn REME will attempt
to break the current World Record for the most Tandem Parachute jumps (403) in
24 hours at Netheravon airfield, Wiltshire.
Our target is to have at least 456 jumpers, each
participant representing a British Soldier who died during the Afghanistan
Campaign whilst serving his or her country.
The event is being organised by 8 Trg Bn REME, an
army unit based in Lyneham. The aim is to raise money for the Army Benevolent
Fund - The Soldiers' Charity:
For soldiers, for their families, for life.
Each person taking part will be required to raise at
least £350 to jump for free or you can make the difference up on the day. The 3
individuals who raise the most money will have the option to do their Tandem
jump with a member of the elite 'Red Devils'!
Including the Tandem jump, transport and food will
be provided with a bacon roll and coffee before leaving Lyneham; a BBQ after
the event will be provided at Netheravon.
Free return Transport will be provided from Lyneham
to Netheravon and a certificate will be awarded of your achievement!
