Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In February this year my sister Elaine died at the age of 56, she had suffered from multiple sclerosis from her late 20's, prior to this Elaine and her husband done a static line parachute jump from 2500ft , I always said I could never do that like she did, and that i could never jump out of a plane. 

Unfortunately Elaine got gradually worse over the years from this horrible disease, due to this she had to spend time at the Eden Valley Hospice for respite care and weekly visits, she was so very grateful to the hospice and all the staff for all they had done to care for her. 

So we have now decided, we are going to do a self funding tandem parachute jump in memory of Elaine and to raise money for Eden valley hospice on Sunday the 21st July. we have 3 month to build up the courage and get over or fear of heights as we jump out of an aeroplane at 15000ft and raise as much as we can for such a good cause!
