    Story

    Meet 94 year old daredevil Hilda 😈 She‘s a woman on a mission to live life to fullest and tick off things from her bucket list, whilst helping great causes along the way.

    She recently became one of the oldest people to get a tattoo in the UK and now her heart is set on a skydive.


    Hilda says she’s always wanted to do a skydive but never got the chance, her late husband served as a RAF pilot and used to say he wanted her to parachute jump because it was an amazing experience, but because of their children it was too much of a risk. Now she feels like is the perfect opportunity to fulfill this wish, after getting a few tattoos in her early 90's she is the youngest "old lady" around.

    This is more than just a lifetime dream, this is giving someone the opportunity to do "the impossible". When I and Hilda spoke originally, she laughed at the thought of a skydive being even remotely possible, in her mind it was never going to happen. We all have things in our lives that we would love to do but haven't got round to or we just physically think we can't.

    This is one of those moments but for a lady that deserves to feel what it's like to be young again, for the adrenaline to take over her and feel free. If you're a person that can understand this feeling or your a person thats too afraid to skydive (or any fear for that matter) let Hilda be the hope that you need, let her show you that the impossible can be possible and that you are never "too old".

    We're aiming to raise £2000 to pay for Hildas jump and a little extra to contribute to a close relative that is being treated in Great Ormond Street Children Hospital. None of this would be possible without your donations and contributions to such a fantastic opportunity for Hilda.

    The skydive is already booked and confirmed for 2nd February, 4 days before Hilda's 95th birthday. So please make a lovely woman's wish come true and share this post & donate to this great cause. 🙏🏻
