Story

<p>****UPDATE*****</p> <p>It's now less than a week to go before the jump and we are getting very nervous but are raring to go.&nbsp; We have watched a video about it on YouTube which did scare the life out of us but we are working on practicing our ariel dance routine, albeit in the confines of the office at the moment!&nbsp;&nbsp; We have booked a videographer to jump with us so if anyone wants to watch the&nbsp;DVD&nbsp;just let us know.</p> <p>Anyway, we are so grateful for all of the donations made so far - we really appreciate you taking time to donate and support such an amazing charity.</p> <p>For those that have not got round to making a donation yet, there is still time!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for taking the time to visit&nbsp;our JustGiving page.&nbsp; Stephanie Dunderdale and Helen Gott both of the Private Client Team at Clarion Solicitors&nbsp;have had a momentary lapse of sanity and have signed up to take part in a 15,000 ft skydive in support of the good works at St Gemma's Hospice.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>The Hospice supports people of all backgrounds and faiths in the Yorkshire area not only for patients but for their families as well.&nbsp; We have had to priviledge to visit the Hospice numerous times and it is a truly inspiring place which provides first class care and support for residents.&nbsp;&nbsp; The Hospice requires at least&nbsp;&pound;8 million to run each year and much of this is met from donations.</p> <p>This is the highest skydive possible and will be a first (and only!) jump for both of us. The jump is scheduled to take place on&nbsp;3 March 2012 subject to the prevailing weather conditions on that date.&nbsp; If you would like to come and watch the jump then please email us for details.</p> <p>We welcome your support and want to thank&nbsp;all you kind&nbsp;supporters in advance for your donations.&nbsp;</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>
