Story

Help, I've agreed to jump out of a plane from 15000 feet!!!

Possibly a midlife crisis, possibly to see if I still have what it takes to make the grade as an SAS Commando. But most importantly to try and raise as much money as possible for the great charity, Diabetes UK.

With powers of persuasion, my brother in law Ryan has managed to get me and another of my brother in laws Matt to take the plunge. If you donate, he may share the photo's he is holding over me to agree to such a thing!!

Having seen the impact that diabetes can have on close family members, friends and colleagues. And the ongoing daily challenges that it can present. Then my fear of jumping out of a plane tied to a bedsheet is a challenge I feel I should face with the same determination. And to do my part I have agreed to up it from the planned 10000ft, to the max 15000ft.

How you can help:

Any donation is greatly received. There is no such thing as one too small as they all come together to help Diabetes UK in their life changing research and support to those in need.

Thank you for your time.

Kind Regards,

Dan
