Story
In Summer 2018 I am participating in the national program ‘World Challenge’ travelling to Vietnam and Laos. I have created this JustGiving page in the hope of gaining sponsorship for my Sky Dive in September 2017 to raise funds for my trip.
World Challenge is an organisation that gives young people the opportunity to travel to developing countries, explore the cultures and customs of the area, take part in high-altitude treks and gain global citizenship skills by supporting local community-based projects. Past projects have included building wells and classrooms for village schools; building facilities for orphanages and conservation projects to protect endangered wildlife and habitats.
I have to raise around £4500 to fund my entire expedition and the conservation projects. I have already started funding this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity by working part-time at Tesco’s and selling home-made cakes. In the next year I will be undertaking many more fundraising activities, including this Sky Dive.
If you wish, you will be able to follow my journey here and then in September 2018, read about the community projects I have undertaken. Any donations, no matter how big or small, will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

6 years agoOn Wednesday, 20 Sept at the North London SkyDiving School I made a tandem jump with my amazing instructor, Kevin and I have to say, it’s THE best crazy experience I’ve ever had! This experience would not have been the same without Kevin, who trusted me to take control and fly the parachute down. It was wicked!! Thank you to you all for sponsoring me to do this crazy jump to raise funds for my World Challenge trip in 2018!!
