Hi,

Abi & Baz here, quietly papping ourselves in anticipation of our latest fundraising shinanigans!!

In support of Childrens Hospices UK we are going to do a Sky Dive, a 10,000 freefall, solo, jump out of a plane, in the air, flying. Thats a long way to fall!! And at a speed of 120mph we really need some support!!!

So why should you help and make a donation? Children's Hospices UK works with over 40 hospices across the UK that help families and children with life limiting illnesses.

We have chosen 2 hospices to benefit from the funds you raise

- Naomi House in Basingstoke

and

- Ellenor Lions in Dartford

These hospices and the services they provide are dependent on crazy people like us doing mental stunts like this to recieve donations from your lovely, generous selves to keep going. They are free to those that need them and really make a difference.

So please, help us help them. We need to hit our target to be able to do our jump and we can't do without you....

We'll update this page with the loaction of the jump so you can come along and watch us land!! Hopefully safely... ... ...
