Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.

I did my first parachute jump for St Richards Hospice in 2008. As well as providing funds for the local charity's ongoing work, I wanted to give something back to show appreciation for the care and support they provided to our friend and former colleague - Paul Beard.

Now I am thrilled to have the chance to do it again - a tandem skydive from 10,000 feet with a thrilling freefall followed by a parachute descent over the Northamptonshire countryside, landing back at Hinton-in-the-Hedges airfield.

Many thanks in advance for supporting St Richards, I am hoping to raise at least £1200 for this well deserving cause - and appreciate all donations small and large.

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.
