Story
In memory of Andrew Lewis, a team of friends and family are skydiving to raise money for St Michael's Hospice, Hereford. In January 2025, Andrew was cared for at St Michael's Hospice during his final weeks. The care and compassion shown to Andrew, Christine, Lauren, Anna and Simon and all the visiting friends and family, was outstanding. It was Andrew's challenge to his Parish Vicar, Angie and daughter, Anna that they complete a skydive in his memory and to raise vital funds for the wonderful Hospice that cared for him so well.
Teaming up with Mike Pullin, founder of Hospice Angels and Flying Angels, as well as being a longtime friend to Andrew, the following intrepid adventurers will be taking to the skies in Andrew's Flying Angels team. Rev. Angie Kateley, Anna Williams and Lauren Hill (Andrew's daughters), Mike Pullin, Martin Williams, Martin Powell, Julian Evans, Claire Poyner, Rachael Tinton, Hannah Probert, Claire Jones, Sally Bigley, Steph Askew, Louise Randsley, Sophie Manns and Melanie Ward.

The Hospice multi-disciplinary team includes doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, complementary therapists, social workers, chaplains and counsellors. These specialist Hospice staff work together and often in partnership with the NHS to relieve patients’ symptoms, control their pain and help them to live well until the end of life. It is vital that everyone that needs it has the appropriate care and support they need to cope with the complex feelings and lifestyle changes caused by a terminal illness.
