Story
We're jumping out of a plane all in the name of Bundles of Joy.
Bundles of Joy was founded in November 2016 after realising there was a need to try and reduce poverty within our local area at the same time as making a difference to families and children.
Through the gerosity of the public we collect good quality baby equipment, toys, clothes, nappies, unused toiletries and prams. It is then through the links we are establishing with other charities and health professionals that the equipment is distributed to familes in need. All familes have different needs so one family may need everything from a moses basket to new born clothes and a pram whilst another family may need the next age range of toys for their children and some bigger sized clothes. Whatever the need that is identified we are here to help.
We have been supported by the professionals and local charities and also by the public. Funding is obviously the one thing we need to help run the service to the best of its ability. Its important we can get all the equipment checked where needed, washed, cleaned and made fit for purpose should that be the case.
So the Bundles of Joy Charity sky dive is to raise much needed funds for the charity.
We hope you will be bale to help us reach if not smash our target that we have set.
The 7 of us are all very excited, scared and bonkers but above all passionate about raising money for our local charity. Its important communities work together and by doing this we hope this is being demonstrated within the Beverley, Hull and East Riding area.
Thank you for your contribution, love from Claire, Heather, Romney, Sarah, Lesley, Rhys and Naomi xx

7 years agoWe would like to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who has donated to us for the skydive. After a disappointing Saturday we have a super special Sunday. We all took to the sky of Bridlington and experienced the most amazing views from 10,000 feet. The experience was awesome and one we will never forget. The pennies are still rolling in so thank you so much everyone xx

7 years agoWe're all gutted after waiting most the day that we have been postponed. However it gives us another few hours to try and get a few more pennies of sponsorship. Thank you so much to everyone that came today in anticipation to watch. We're back in the morning so fingers crossed!!

7 years ago2 more sleeps and I'm keeping an eye on the weather.........just sorted out the tshirts for us all and trying not to think too much about what we're actually doing. However what we are doing is pushing ourselves past our comfort zone. We're letting someone and potentially nothing control us...........it's going to be an amazing experience that will stay with us for life. So please help us in making a difference to local families! Thank you xx
