This year I plan to take on another challenge, I will be jumping out of a plane at 15,000 feet, on Saturday 9th February, this was postponed from November '18 as some of you are aware I broke by ribs meaning I had to delay my jump. I am raising money for two charities:
Devizes Opportunity Centre
The Devizes Opportunity Centre is a Specialist Early Years Centre that promotes the overall development and life chances of young children who have disabilities, learning difficulties and complex health conditions.
Working in partnership with their parents and carers, they strive to provide a comprehensive package of individually targeted early years education and therapeutic care for each child together with emotional support, guidance and information for their families.
This is an amazing, self-funded, facility that Sixpenny work closely with in order to provide all children with the opportunities they deserve.
Devizes Opportunity Centre rely heavily on support, sponsorship and donations.
Children’s Cancer and Leukaemia Group
Children’s Cancer and Leukaemia Group (CCLG) is a leading children’s cancer charity in the UK, bringing together professionals working within childhood cancer. They provide funds and grants towards research into childhood cancers, work in partnership with other charities, advise government policy, provide support and information to families through award-winning publications.
Their ultimate aim is "to cure as many children as possible while reducing the side effects of treatment".
Their help, knowledge and expertise has been paramount in Suki’s ongoing treatment over the last 22 months and over the coming years.
Follow ‘Sukistar’ on social media for information and help to spread the word.
All funds raised will be split between Devizes Opportunity Centre and CCLG.
My jump will be recorded by a trained videographer who jumps with me.
