Hi!
On Friday 2nd March 2012 I'll be skydiving out of a plane at 10,000ft, to raise money for Alzheimer's Society.
The jump is classed as AFF (accelerated freefall), which means I'll be 'flying solo', as opposed to tandem skydiving with an instructor, after a 1 day training session.
The Alzheimers Society is Tesco's charity of the year, which is how I heard about the fundraising events they are doing. However, after my grandma passed away 6 years ago with Alzheimers, it's a charity I'd particularly like to raise money for anyway.
Alzheimer's Society is the leading support and research charity for people with dementia, their families and carers.
There are 750,000 people with dementia in the UK with numbers set to rise to one million by 2021.
If you'd like to know more please visit:

Any amount however small, you can give would be massively appreciated, however I've set myself a target of £750, so have some Xmas spirit and give generously :)
Thank-you,
Owen
