Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I am currently organising to do a tandem parachute jump, in order to do this the minimum amount of sponsorship I need to raise is £400 for the fostering network-a very worthwhile cause.

Those of you who don't know, I was once a fostered child and indeed am now a very proud foster parent. Sometimes fostering and being fostered is about taking a leap of faith, facing fears, trusting and hoping for a positive outcome. I hope that by taking my leap and also  facing a fear of heights (trust me this will be a real challenge for me) that others will be able to find their positive future and faith in human kindness.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Fostering Network 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.

I hope to return to the ground safely having successfully faced my fear of heights and to raise the £1,000 target that I have placed on this page.


So please sponsor me now! and thank you so so much.

UPDATE!! Confirmation has been received that the jump will take place 23rd May 2009!!

Mum, Dad and brother Patrick, may you R.I.P , I am the person I am now because of the people you were then. You are true inspirations and forever in my heart. Bring me back down safely x
