Story

My name is Hazel Louise Jones and I will be doing a charity skydive for Western Beacons Mountain Search and Rescue Team on the 08 June 2013

I am doing this because they showed amazing courage and dedication to the search of my little sister April Jones when she went missing in October 2012. They battled all types of terrain and horrendous weather conditions, and although she was never found, they, like Paul, Coral and so many other people never gave up hope.

So please help this worthy cause by donating as little or as much as possible. Every penny is greatly appreciated.

1 more day to go so lets make it count. the team have been trying to raise 65,000 for a new vehicle since last year so these donations will make a huge difference to them. they will be coming down to support hazel tomorrow and we are going to be honoured to meet them in person and thank them all for their efforts to find April.
i would also like to add that although everyone else is very nervous at the mo, Hazel seems extremely calm i think the only time it will become real to her is when the doors of the aeroplane open and she realises just how high she is
this is our final day now and thankyou all for your support. if you have already donated can you think of any local businesses near you that may consider donating if so please pm Me with any information. x
