10,000 ft Freefall Parachute Jumping · 24 July 2010

Anaphylaxis UK is the only UK-wide charity operating solely for the growing numbers of people at risk of serious allergic reactions and anaphylaxis. While there’s no treatment or cure for anaphylaxis, we believe that by providing information, training and support, there is a brighter future.

Story

I must be completely mad, but on the 24th July 2010 im going to be throwing myself out of a plane at 10,000ft to raise money for a charity which is especially close to my heart. For those of you that know me it was 5 years December since my brother Sam died from Anaphylactic shock.

Anaphyaxis is an extreme and severe allergic reaction.

Im going to be raising funds for The Anaphylaxis Campaign. They are a little known charity who work to educate schools, health professionals and the food industry to achieve a safer world for people with life-threatening allergies; people like Sam.

Everytime I think about the skydive I get that feeling of fear you get in the pit of your stomach, Im terrified of heights for a start! The mere thought of it makes my palms sweaty & one of my friends describes me as a 'feet firmly on the ground kind of girl' but im sure it will be an amazing experience & will help to raise funds for a very worthy cause.

I know times are hard but please dig deep & donate now. Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page   xx
