Story

8 Trg Bn REME will attempt to break the current World Record of most Tandem Parachute jumps (403) in 24 hours at Netheravon airfield, Wiltshire. Our target is to have at least 456 jumpers, each participant representing a British Soldier who died during the Afghanistan Campaign whilst serving his and her country.

The event is being organised by 8 Trg Bn REME, an army unit based in Lyneham. The event is being organised to raise money for the ABF- The Soldiers' Charity.

Each person taking part will be required to raise at least £350 or you can make the difference up on the day. The 3 individuals who raise the most money will have the option to do their Tandem jump with a member of the elite 'Red Devils'!

Including the Tandem jump, transport and food will be provided with a bacon roll and coffee before leaving Lyneham; a BBQ after the event will be provided at Netheravon.

Free return Transport will be provided from Lyneham to Netheravon and a certificate will be awarded of your achievement!
