Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit my Big Jump 2010 JustGiving page.

On the 1st of May I will be doing a Skydive (strapped to a hopefully well trained professional) to raise much needed funds for the Gift of Sight Appeal.

The Gift of Sight Appeal funds research into a range of diseases that cause blindness. Their main areas of research are age related macular degeneration (the most common cause of blindness in the western world), glaucoma and conditions such as nystagmus.

Any size of donation really will make a huge difference to this vital research and will really help encourage me to leave the safety of the plane and hurtle towards the ground!

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 Gift of Sight 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.

So please dig deep and donate now!
