Story

Hi there! My name is Jocelyn and the chance to skydive came down to me by default (many thanks to Tess Harris of the PKD Charity). I'm very blessed to have two perfectly decent kidneys but one of my dearest friends Rene and her family suffer from this disease which is a lot more prevalent than many people realise. Your donations will be well used to support sufferers and their families affected by polycystic kidney disease.

In my youth I was always a bit of a daredevil, but now I have reached my 40's I have become a little more conservative and I've certainly never skydived before. Recently, while travelling, I asked the pilot to tell me when we were at 10,000 feet, so I would have some idea how high up we would be when we jump from the plane.....oooooeeeer the ground was a long way away! I might not be grinning like my photo at the door of the plane! However, if I am able to raise some money for the PKD Charity while doing this freefall jump, I will be laughing all the way down!

Donating through this site is really simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: PKD Charity will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
If for any reason you're unsure about sponsoring me online, feel free to e-mail me at
jossisjumping@btinternet.com  and I'll be happy to give you an address where you can send donations.
Many thanks for your support.
