The 978 Bridging Company Skydive is an opportunity for the companies employees to support local organisations which are close to their hearts, as well as a chance to push themselves firmly out of their comfort zone.

Simon has chosen to raise money for More Music in Morecambe.

A few weeks after moving to Morecambe in October 2011 Simon and his wife Liz heard a rumbling outside. They thought it was people dragging their dust bins out, but it was lasting forever. When they went to the door it got louder so they put a coat on and followed the noise.

A few streets away they were greeted by the Christmas lantern parade with hundreds of young people and adults carrying lanterns to a drum ensemble. Simon already knew he’d moved to a wonderful community, but it is moments like this that truly made him feel at home.

More Music is a community music and education charity based in the West End of Morecambe, working throughout Lancashire, the North West and internationally. The organisation aims to build confidence and spirit in individuals and communities through creative arts activities, particularly music.
