Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;">KATY'S NEW DATE FOR THE JUMP : 19th March 2012 (Matt's Birthday) &nbsp;</span></p> <p><span style="color: #000000;">For now, Katy will be doing the jump on her own. &nbsp;Unfortunately, since I have been unwell for the last few months, the GP has recommended that I postpone my date until I am well enough. &nbsp;Therefore, Katy and I have decided that she will complete the jump (weather permitting) on Matt's birthday this year and I will do it on the same day 2013!!! &nbsp;Ideally, we would have wanted to do it together, but we really couldn't leave the jump any longer, since so many have kindly donated and we didn't want to let you all down. &nbsp;On the upside, however, this does give us longer to keep raising more money for this terrific cause. &nbsp;THANKS EVERYONE AND GOOD LUCK KATY FOR THE 19TH. XXX</span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;">Earlier this year, my brother, Matt and his girlfriend, Katy were planning on doing a skydive for charity. On May 28th 2010, Matt was tragically killed in a hit and run incident whilst on holiday in Lanzarote.&nbsp; Katy and myself are now doing a skydive to raise money for The&nbsp;West Yorkshire&nbsp;Forget Me Not Trust in memory of Matt, who we miss dearly.&nbsp; The aim of the West Yorkshire Forget Me Not Trust is to raise funds to build and run a children's respite centre and hospice in West Yorkshire. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;">PLEASE DONATE AS MUCH AS YOU CAN FOR THIS FANTASTIC CHARITY&nbsp;SO WE CAN&nbsp;MAKE MATT PROUD!
