We help people with spinal cord injury to transform their lives

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

After almost a year and a half since breaking my neck in a bad landing, I plan to return for my 524th skydive in conjunction with The Back-Up Trust, a charity that amongst other things aims to reintroduce people with spinal cord injuries to outdoor activities and mentor them through their adjustment back into daily life. I will be jumping with 4 members of staff and 3 ex-patients from the spinal unit here in Salisbury. Unfortunately as my accident rendered me tetraplegic I can no longer jump unassisted, and so we will all be completing our jumps as tandem passengers.

Please support us by digging deep for our worthwhile cause.
