Story

Thanks for taking the time to even start reading this.. We all know there are certain minutes in life we can never get back and all that. You might think all of this sounds very unserious, but it's not, so keep reading, please! I'm genuinely looking forward to this, and I NEED your help. Even if it's just £5, every little bit helps, especially when you're a student who's £52.000 in debt and don't have enough money to do the skydive on my own. Here's where I try and convince you that it's a brilliant cause and you're doing a good deed if you do decide to donate to help me out:

Well, University of Essex Pole Dancing Club are taking part in a Tandem Skydive to raise as much money as possible for the Make A Wish foundation. We're all excited to throw ourself out of a plane, some more than others, and hopefully our parachutes will work and we'll get back down in one piece (that won't be a mess to clean up). I've wanted to do a skydive for years, and now it is finally happening - while raising the money for children in need. Now, what can be more rewarding than risking your own life and helping other people while doing so? If I don't make it, at least others will have a better chance of doing so!

Our Pole Dance Club chose to support the Make A Wish foundation because of the incredible work that they do, supporting children with life-threating illnesses, and helping them to enjoy life for as long as possible.

Please support me and this crazy idea so I can tick it off my bucket list by donating anything you can to make this happen.

Thank you! xxx

PS: I'll try and find a way to get it on video so you can all enjoy my screams and facial expression from the pressure of air in free fall.. x
