Raising money for fly2help

Charity Registration No. 1119846

Sharing Air Smiles! fly2help lifts the horizons of people of all ages, backgrounds and cultures through the medium of flight. We support those with life-limiting and chronic illnesses; families who have suffered some form of tragedy and those who are working to recover a sense of self-worth and need a life-boost. This includes those struggling to live with bereavement and disability, isolation or poverty and people who have suffered extreme neglect and abuse. An exhilarating flight gives our beneficiaries the chance to see the world from a new perspective leaving their worries on the ground.<p> The people with whom we work come from various backgrounds and face disadvantage in a variety of forms: social, economic, physical, educational and cultural.<p> Many are from areas of social deprivation, both urban and rural. They may be from troubled family backgrounds, and that includes those who are or have been in care or are victims of abuse. Some have emotional or behavioural problems, others live with learning difficulties and special educational needs. <p> By giving these people the opportunity to experience the liberation and freedom of flight, our team hopes to inspire and develop their imagination and to enhance their self-determination. The extra boost that comes from the freedom of the skies and the exhilaration of flight renews motivation, enthuses and increases long term self esteem and confidence.<p> Turning Ordinary Days into Extraordinary Adventure

I am about to turn 50

My broad mind and narrow waist line are trading places - I am doing something about it. I am cycling from Lands End to John O Groats. 990 miles. Should take 10 days (just over)

I have also led a very fortunate life (..so far) - one of the ways I give back is through fly2help....

I take people flying - people who are less fortunate, people who are facing tragedy, disability, long term illness or death. Our aim is to give them and their family a day to remember, to help take their mind off the day to day.

it makes you cry

please give some money

for thse of you who like to indulge in pain - the route is here...
