Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Over the years I have had a varied bucket list and skydiving has always been in the top three of them. Not only will this be a dream come true but it is also a targeted personal achievement for my own weight loss. I need to be 15st 'inc.' the equipment, so that means I need to loose at least 1stone before the jump, which gives me 4 weeks to prepare. However I plan to lose 1.3st to be on the safe side. So with this in mind I have axed the ale, pushed away the pizza, declined the donut, closed the drawer to the crisp cupboard, cancelled the kebab, turned down the takeaway and am embracing the emergence of a large vegetable/protein diet. Bring on the water and time to plan my running routes!!!  

Close friends of mine work for this charity and I have known those that have called upon Keech when in need, who were brilliant from day one. They are also one of the charities we support at work and therefore there was no other charity out there that deserves my/your help. 

***10/9/21 UPDATE***

Due to an announcement today that the airfield are having to close unexpectedly on 21/9, my jump will now be taking place on 5/10. Therefore I plan to reduce my weight target by a further 3 lbs. This would be a 1.6st target loss. 3.5 weeks to go now and 9lbs to go

Any donation would be greatly appreciated!!!
