World's Highest Skydive - Florida · 24 October 2019

Alzheimer Scotland is the leading, national dementia charity in Scotland. Our mission is to make sure nobody faces dementia alone. We provide advice, information and support and we are here for people living with dementia, their families and carers across Scotland.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As if a week of golf in sunny Florida wasn't enough - tough, but somebody's got to do it- I've decided to sign up to the World's Highest Skydive at 18,000 feet, in Titusville, Florida while I'm there.

It's all booked and paid for, and I figured it might be a good opportunity to raise some much needed funds, but more importantly, raise awareness for a charity which is very close to my heart. 
As you may or may not know, my mother is currently living with dementia.
I have experienced, first hand, the fantastic support on offer from Alzheimer Scotland (Lewis & Harris), and, in all honesty, I don't know where we'd (Joey MacAskill, her wonderful full-time carer, extended family and myself), be without them over the past 12 months.

Locally, Alzheimer Scotland (Lewis & Harris) provide direct care services, activities and support, to people with dementia and their families and carers. Their specialist dementia services provide personalised back-up, designed around each individual's abilities and interests.  In order to continue providing the wide range of activities and support currently available - they rely on annual fundraised income, so I'd like to do what I can to support, and I'll keep you all updated on the jump after it happens!
Remember- ALL of the money pledged will go to the charity.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
