Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

There are a lot of children, out there who have it difficult in the UK. Going up in an aircraft or even dreaming of becoming a pilot is unattainable due to their hardships. The pandemic has made it even harder for even more. 

To be able to help someone achieve a dream, and put a smile on their face during such hardships is worth walking on a wing for, which is why I am doing this.

Even though I am a pilot myself, I am scared of heights. My biggest worry is someone else flying the aircraft, with me not being in control. I am going to overcome my fears  to support fly2help so I can help put a smile on a face and make things a little easier for someone.

I realise asking for donations in a time where everyone has given so much already to the Ukraine is a big ask, but anything you could give would be great appreciated.

Many many thanks for your time and your donation

fly2help is an aviation charity that inspires positive change by sharing the love of flying. Our vision is for everyone to be able to access the positive benefits of aviation. Air Smiles Days We provide Air Smiles Days - exciting experience days, centred around a short flight in a light aircraft - to people living in difficult situations including illness, disability, bereavement and isolation. Air Smiles Days aim to bring joy and laughter, create and capture magical memories, boost confidence and self-esteem and offer respite to individuals, families and groups. Aim High fly2help's Aim High programmes encourage young people from the ages of 5 to 18 to be inspired by the world of aviation, through activities that support personal life goals whilst exploring future career aspirations. We introduce young people to the world of aviation and aerospace, providing fun and inspiration whilst guiding and supporting them as they consider their futures lives and careers. How you can help We want our programmes to be accessible to every young person who needs support and to do that we need to expand our activities across the UK. Your support will enable us to reach out to all those who have a dream but don't know how to reach their goals. Your support is vital in providing inspiration to young people today whilst raising their aspirations for tomorrow. Please email us on info@fly2help.org.
