The South Essex Divorce and Family Team at Birkett Long LLP are taking to the skies to raise money for St Helena's Hospice, a local charity that helps local people in North Essex to face incurable illness and bereavement.

On 20 July 2025, Solicitors, Francesca Cozens (Neale), Dorjan Myrtja, Farrah Harvey-Nawaz, Beth Wade, Ellis Crow and Lisa Collins will be boarding an aircraft, flown to around 13,000 feet (almost two miles high) and then proceed to fall up to 120mph and descend to 5,000 feet in just 40 seconds before their parachutes open and fly them safely back to ground.

Fran has personal experience of how amazing St Helena Hospice are to their patients and their families. Sadly, her Mum, Mary Crawley died at St Helena on 27 June 2023. Our team would now like to help the St Helena team. Please support our adventure so that other families can be supported by this incredible organisation.
