Story

As many of you know we lost Katie Atkinson on the 29/01/2017 at a very young age of 23. She was a truly inspirational, young, beautiful and fun loving lady who touched many hearts. Katie was loved by all that knew her, she lived for the moment through her many adventures whether it be travelling to exotic destinations, jumping out of a plane or just spending time with family and friends. Katie was a natural light which drew people to her and inspired people to live life to the full. In a way to honour the true free spirit she was, we will be jumping out of a plane at 10,000ft on the 09/07/2017.

We have chosen this charity because Katie did her own skydive in 2013. She raised a whopping  £1,103.00 for the Aplastic Anaemia Trust. This charity was very close to her heart which she showed through her passion to raise the funds and courage during her jump. 

Aplastic anaemia is a rare blood disorder in which there is a failure of the bone marrow which stops developing new sufficient blood cells. It effects 4 in one million people and if not diagnosed early enough it can become fatal, because it is such a rare disorder there isn't enough information out there to determine how it is caused. The Aplastic Anaemia Trust is a charity that not only funds research on the illness but also provides help and support for those suffering.
we would all really appreciate any donations towards this cause that is close to many of our hearts.
