My story

 

**PLEASE NOTE: THE DATE OF THE JUMP HAS CHANGED TO SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 21ST AS THE WEATHER ON THE 14TH IS EXTREMELY BAD IN SWANSEA (SEVERE GALES AND HEAVY RAIN). PLEASE KEEP THE DONATIONS COMING**


Hey everyone,

During National Adoption Week (Nov 9-15) we're going to be jumping out of a plane to raise funds for Adoption UK. We're not sure we'll be feeling this excited when we are stood bracing ourselves for the 10,000ft free fall jump but knowing that we'll be supporting thousands of adopted children and their families will make the sheer terror worthwhile.

But just so you know, Adoption UK is the only national charity run by and for adoptive parents. The charity’s aim is to provide and support a self-help network for adoptive parents to explore the unique social, emotional and developmental needs of adopted children and young people and their families. Through this network, Adoption UK also promotes effective learning practice, based on almost 40 years’ experience of adoptive parenting, which is integrated with current theories of trauma, attachment and development.

Your sponsorship can help the charity support families and their children in many, many ways and every little bit helps. It really is a good cause (see www.adoptionuk.org for more about the charity) and you really will be making a difference to the lives of others.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.


P.S. My daughters are the thrill-seekers......not me!!
