Story
Thank you for visiting our fundraising page.
Well, the good news is that we have Been up, jumped out and floated down to earth.
Many thanks to all our sponsors, and if you or anyone wants to add any money, please feel free. This page will be open for a long time yet.
We, (myself, my brother Dave and our friend John Rose) will be attempting a sponsored parachute jump in aid of the Farleigh Hospice. The Hospice looked after my Mum in the last few weeks of her life. She passed away on the 18th of June this year. John's mother also passed away at the Hospice 2 years ago.
We cannot praise the people at the Farleigh Hospice enough, and we have decided to do this to raise money as a token of our thanks.
Whilst I can't admit to being too keen on it, it seems easier than running a bloody marathon (which was the only other thing we could think of).
We will be training on the 13th and, weather permitting, we will be jumping on the 14th of september. A 3500 ft static line jump (whatever one of those is).
All donations, big or small will be greatly appreciated, and will be used to great effect.
We are funding the jump ourselves, so all donations will be going directly to the Hospice. Don't worry if you can't use this to donate as we will be passing among you shortly with sponsorship forms, so there is little chance of escape.
Many thanks for visiting this site, and please do dig deep into those pockets.
For further info on the hospice, please go to www.farleighhospice.org
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Farleigh Hospice gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
Thank you for your support.
Al, Dave and John
