Story

Thank you for signing up to take part in The Haven's 'Take to the skies' tandem skydive event. We are excited to return to Langar Airfield for another incredible event and we are so pleased you are joining us.

Taking on a 14,000ft tandem skydive is no easy challenge, whether you are taking on this challenge to overcome your fears or it is one on your bucket list, we are incredibly grateful of your support.

The women and children we support at The Haven are facing so many challenges of their own as they start to forge a safe and happy life away from abuse. They could be taking the first brave steps to seeking support by calling our helpline or they may need a safe place to stay in one of our communal refuges. Thanks to your support through taking on a skydive challenge and raising vital funds, it means no matter what support they need, we can be by their side every step of the way - thank you for taking part in this challenge and supporting those in need in our community.

On this page you will be able to see your fellow skydiving team mates and their pages, as much as this is a solo challenge you will be there together on the day to share this incredible experience.

Don't forget to share the link to your Just Giving page with the world! Tell your friends, family, work colleagues whoever you can think of, tell them you are taking on a 14,000ft skydive to support the vital services of The Haven, so that more women and their children can live a safe and happy life away from the fear of abuse.

Good luck with your fundraising and know that Team Haven on hand to support you along your journey, just drop us an email at give@havenrefuge.org.uk

Now it's time to get excited and look forward to the feeling the thrill of a 14,000ft freefall skydive, take in the glorious sights from way above, feel a full adrenaline rush as you reach a 120mph velocity before gently gliding to the ground under the parachute.
