Story

Fall For The Fallen is back and bigger than ever!

12-13 August 2017 at Go Skydive, Salisbury, BlesmaBrave fundraisers will be taking to the skies to fall for our fallen.

The History:

Launched in 2012 by veterans Dave Pacey and Edward Appleby, the event was created to honour those who died serving in Afghanistan; each jump represents a life lost in the conflict.

The ambition was to raise funds to support Trans4mers, a rehabilitative activity to teach Blesma Members, ex-service men and women who have suffered limb loss or complex trauma injuries, how to skydive in order to rebuild their confidence and self-belief post injury.

Go Skydive are the UK's leading tandem skydiving specialists offering tandem skydive parachute jumps! Signup today and secure your place for only £50.

This year we are aiming for 500 jumps over the weekend, are you willing to brave the fall to honour our fallen?
