Story

<p>To celebrate Dave's 60th birthday we'll be pushing him out of a plane and then jumping out after him.</p> <p>Having bribed his doctor to sign-off his medical form and checked with mum that his life insurance policy is all in order we're almost ready to go.</p> <p>All that remains is to raise a bit of money for a small charity that Dave has been involved&nbsp;with for over 10 years.</p> <p>Rowley Projects is a small charity that works&nbsp;with a rural community in western Kenya.</p> <p>Working in partnership with local people Rowley Projects has already helped bring clean water, basic healthcare and primary and secondary education to thousands of people in the community.</p> <p>Support is always gratefully received and helps Rowley Projects continue to develop their work with this community and even a small amount of money can make a huge difference. Our skydiving trip is already paid for so anything you donate will go direct to Rowley Projects.</p> <p>For example:</p> <p>&pound;5 pays for a treated mosquito net</p> <p>&pound;10 pays for the immunisation of 50 children and protects them from Hepatitis B, Diptheria and Polio.</p> <p>&pound;30 pays a month's salary for a primary school teacher</p> <p>&pound;80 pays for one child to attend school for a whole year.</p> <p>&nbsp;Thanks for taking the time to visit&nbsp;our JustGiving page.</p> <p>Cheers</p> <p>Dave, Matt, Liz, Rob and Nick</p>
