Raising money for

Highland Hospice

Charity Registration No. SCO11227

Highland Hospice is the only hospice serving adults with incurable life limiting disease in the Highlands of Scotland and is acknowledged as the centre of specialist palliative care expertise in the region. A full multidisciplinary team is employed to provide true holistic care and comprises medical and nursing staff, occupational, physio and complementary therapists, a chaplain and family support workers. The Hospice currently provides a 10 bed In Patient Unit in Inverness and a Day Hospice on the same site. The Hospice also provides bereavement counselling for relatives, a 24 hour telephone helpline and education and training for other healthcare professionals to enhance their ability to provide palliative care in their own communities. Highland Hospice relies on the generosity of the Highland community to raise the more than £42,000 that is required every week to keep the services going and to ensure that an exceptional quality of care continues to be provided.

My story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!

After raising over £3,500 with my last skydive (a tandem jump), I wanted to continue raising money for charities, this time supporting the Highland Hospice, with a solo skydive!

The Hospice needs a huge £42,000 a week to cover all its costs. It takes care of adults in the Highlands with terminal diseases, as well as providing support for the families affected.

Any donations, however small, are greatly appreciated and are going to a very worthwhile cause.

UPDATE - Did the jump on sunday 13th september and loved it!! Big thanks to John for photography and mum for being able to actually watch me! Thank you so much to everyone who's sponsored me - the page will be open for donations til december.
