Hello!

2025 marked the year I turned 35, halfway to 70, hopfully not mid life but close. As with most cliche's I freaked out and, too chubby to take up cycling across the roads of Greater Manchester in skin tight lycra, I looked to the skies.

So, I am taking on the challenge of an 11,000ft skydive on Friday 5th September! Whilst fully leaning into the mid-life crisis cliché I am also taking part to raise vital funds for Pets Foundation.

Pets Foundation rely on donations to continue their work across the country. Every pound raised enables them to continue to help pets and the people who love them.

Your donation supports their grant programme and community partners across the UK.

I know we're in a cost of living crisis and so any amount, big or small, is so appreciated and will make such a difference. For example a £5 donation can pay for a working assistance dog for a day and a £20 donation can fund an emergency vet appointment for a dog in need!

Take a look at their impact here: https://www.petsfoundation.co.uk/our-impact/

Thank you for taking the time and for donating AND should you want a laugh I'd be happy to share the pics/potential video on the 6th September...
