Jumping for St John's Hospice.

On September 14th, both me and my 24 year old son, Thomas, will partake in a free fall tandem parachute jump, to help raise funds for St John's Hospice in which has already been supported by Morecambe Armed Forces Day and Morecambe Music Festival.

In 2022 Thomas was diagnosed with a rare strain of incurable B-cell Hodgkins Lymphoma cancer which can't be cured but is not immediately life threatening. He could live a decent long life but will require treatment as and when needed.

In June 2024 I was diagnosed with terminal prostate cancer that had already spread into my bones so i can't be cured. I am currently on limited life expectancy. I am therefore fulfilling things on our bucket list.

If I am unable to jump on medical grounds, Thomas will still jump in both our names.

The Hospice is only able to offer the assistance by public donations as they are not fully funded by the NHS.

It will be a place I will need when the inevitable happens.

Following the jump, we are holding a fundraising day and evening at the Exchange pub on Regent Road, Morecambe, where 8 local singers have given their time to provide entertainment free of charge.

Raffles and auctions throughout the day.

Please help me to help them by donating.
