Kim Kimber is raising money for Endometriosis UK

Kim's Parachute Jump · 18 October 2009

Over 1.5 million in the UK have endometriosis and the impact of the disease is for some devastating, yet diagnosis takes on average 8 years. With your donations we are turning this around, raising awareness, providing support and information, supporting research, and campaigning for change.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

While laying in bed, recovering from my latest operation (I have one every 5 years to try and minimise the pain from my endometriosis), I thought I'd do something positive - and raise money for Endometriosis UK by taking part in a TANDEM PARACHUTE JUMP (maybe the anaesthetic hadn't worn off!)

I'll be freefalling from a height of 10,000ft at about 120mph, so I'm hoping to raise over £500.

It's taking place in Cambridge on 18th October 2009, which just so happens to be my Birthday too.

There is no cure for Endometriosis, so I am raising money for Endometriosis UK, who aim to improve the lives of people affected by endometriosis and work towards a future where it has the least possible impact on those living with the condition.

They are also campaigning to get more funds into endometriosis research.

You may have never even heard of Endometriosis, but about 2 million women in the UK have the condition.  You can find out about it, by visiting the website: http://www.endometriosis-uk.org/index.html

PLEASE do support me by making a donation and you will be helping those with the condition... and maybe one day help to find a cure... Thank you.

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.

Many thanks for your support,
