Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As a partner at Gosschalks, I see first hand the work which they The HEY Smile Foundation does to assist charities in Hull and East Yorkshire and how much of an impact their work has. 

Last  December I ‘won’ (in the loosest sense of the word!) the chance to tandem skydive in order to raise funds for their Smile by the Sea project and this June, along with 14 other people I will be jumping out of an aeroplane.

Smile by the Sea is an initiative of the HEY Smile Foundation and offers families facing extremely difficult circumstances respite in the form of a break of their choice.

Areas of need the project will prioritise are: long-term or life-limiting illness, families in crisis, disabled children and young people, families living in deprivation, older people and unpaid carers. Breaks are only provided to those who are not able to fund a break for themselves and families must be referred by a local registered charity or constituted body.

Any amount that you could donate would be truly appreciated - some of these families are in desperate circumstances and are going through often unimaginable things, and a break at this time can have a hugely positive impact.

Thanks for considering making a donation – I truly hope you are able to and thank you sincerely.
