🌟 Welcome to my fundraising page—otherwise known as the moment I officially lost the plot.

On 6th June 2026, I’ll be joining a brave (or possibly bonkers) group from Aspire Housing as we collectively decide that jumping out of a plane at 13,000 feet is a perfectly reasonable way to spend a day. I’ll be plummeting 8,000 feet at around 120mph—faster than I move when someone says “tea break”—before the parachute hopefully deploys. At 60 years old, with two partial knee replacements, you’d think I’d have chosen something a little more gentle…like knitting but no. I’m throwing myself at the sky to raise money for North Staffs Mind, a charity doing incredible work for mental health in our community. If you’d like to sponsor me, please do. Your support will help an amazing cause—and it might also reassure me that this whole “falling from the heavens” idea wasn’t just a moment of midlife madness.
