Under Fives Roundabout runs a pre-school, play group and toddler group in Cambridge. It believes that pre-school children learn best through play in a happy, caring environment. It provides an outstanding level of care and education and actively involves parents in the provision of that care.

Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. 

The parachute jump is scheduled for Sunday 26th April - after a day of training, it's a solo jump from about 3,500 feet. 

I'm raising funds for a small independent pre-school in Cambridge - you can read about Roundabout in the left hand column on this page and on their website www.underfivesroundabout.org.uk.  Both my boys went there and loved it - it's a great organisation run by a committee of volunteers, so all funds go straight to looking after the children.  I'm paying all the costs for the jump, so every penny you give (and some extra from the Government) goes straight to Roundabout.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Under Fives Roundabout 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.

So please sponsor me now! 

Only your support (and possibly some forceful persuasion from the instructor) will get me out of the door of that plane...  and I won't be offended if you urge me on my way with a surprisingly enthusiastic donation!
