<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>On March 12th 2011, I am jumping out of a plane, the thought of which absolutely terrifies me!!! Having jumped out of an aircraft, I will be accelerating towards the ground at 120 miles per hour (that is really really fast...) before releasing a parachute and (hopefully) safely landing, alongside Lucy Foster and Max Shaw, who are jumping with me!</p> <p>Somehow, I am going to face my fears and sky dive to help raise money for READ International, an almost entirely student-volunteer-led charity which collects, sorts and ships disused educational resources from the UK to Tanzania (350,000 books to date).&nbsp;</p> <p>Having previously worked in schools and villages in Africa, I have been made completely aware of how much the children attending these schools want to learn and need all the books and resources we can send to them.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;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&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please spare whatever you can to help me to raise money for this worthy cause, as we need to raise a minimum of &pound;380, but if we can raise more, that would be incredible!</p> <p>Thank you for all your help!</p>
