Story

Hi everyone :)

As most of you are aware, I underwent 3 lots of heart operations as a teenager to overcome my condition of Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT). I have been cleared of the condition for 6 years now and feel as though it is time to give something back to a charity very close to my heart (literally!).

I am jumping world's tallest bungee jump at 233m in Macau at 11am on Wednesday 16th April in order to raise as much money as I possibly can for The Children's Heart Surgery Fund (CHSF) in Leeds General Infirmary.

June 2013, the unit almost got shut down due to the high mortality rate. I want to raise as much money as possible to provide for children who need it, and make sure that something of the sort does not happen again anytime soon.

I really would love it if you could help me to raise money for such a wonderful and worthy cause...if not I will just be standing at the top of a huuuuuge tower, then crap myself, then walk back down again! Without the Childrens Heart Unit at LGI, I wouldnt be able to take part in such daft activities, and I would have definitely struggled to pursue my career as a dance teacher. 

Thank you so much in advance and please leave your name so I can thank each and everyone of you for your truely appreciated help.

(PS.. there WILL be videos so you will more than definitely get your moneys worth, after a few choice words and phrases have been removed!)

Thanks again,

Ashleigh xx
