As many of you may be aware, Michelle, Nigel’s wife, and Caitlyn and Harrison’s Mom, tragically passed away in July this year.

Nigel, Harrison, and Caitlyn’s partner Jordan have decided to bravely take part in the Jump for Joel Skydive taking place in May 2026, in memory of Michelle.

This dive is rather ironic- Those of you who knew Michelle will know she was absolutely petrified of heights, and even suffered from vertigo when she visited The Shard in London!

The charity Smile for Joel was extremely close to Michelle’s heart. Ade, who was Michelle’s manager at the time, tragically lost his life in an act of terrorism, alongside Joel and Pat. Michelle was heartbroken along with the rest of the world, and made it her life’s mission to honour their lives and ensured their memories shined on every single day. Michelle, who advocated for the memorial bench outside their place of work, would sit, reflect and remember them always🪽Michelle also advocated for the Adrian Evans Apprentice Award at Sandwell Council, which she always attended to show her ongoing support.

The target set to raise for this skydive is a minimum that is required for Nigel, Harrison and Jordan to participate.

Any donations given are extremely appreciated🩷

Thankyou in advance.
