Skydive at Dunkeswell airfield -a big challenge for a big year. Celebrating 70 and raising money for clergy well-being

Mental ill health is no respecter of persons. Clergy support their wider community but the nature of the work can result in feelings of stress and burnout. St Luke’s has helped the clergy to flourish for 130 years. With your help we can continue to offer support to those that support us.

Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Yeh😅 Skydive successfully completed! Scary but hugely exhilarating too. Huge thanks to everyone for all your support for me and donations for St Luke’s. It is deeply appreciated. We smashed the target and thanks to a mystery donation we have made it over £3,000! 👌👏

Just turned 70, so I thought –

Why not seize the day?! and take on the challenge of doing my first skydive to raise funds for:

'St Luke's for Clergy Wellbeing' https://www.stlukesforclergy.org.uk

I know all too well from my own experience, and from supervising other clergy, that pressures on ordained ministers have increased massively – especially since Covid and with all that's been hitting the Church of England in the last year or so.

St Luke's supports clergy effectively with pastoral supervision and mental health services to support their wellbeing and ability to help others. As a trustee I know that requests for help are overwhelming and strains our present capacity to meet demand.

Anything you could give to support the work of St Luke's will be hugely appreciated! Thank you for reading this far, and for your friendship and support.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

A huge thank you again! xx
