You’ve heard of crazy ideas, right? Well, mine is to throw myself out of a plane at 10,000 feet on August 9th, 2026. Why, you ask? To fight something far scarier than a freefall: bullying. I’m doing a tandem skydive to raise money for BulliesOut, a charity that’s on the front lines of this battle.

I've seen the silent damage that bullying does. It's not just a few mean words; it's the erosion of a person's spirit.

It chips away at their confidence, makes them doubt their own abilities, and leaves them with a negative voice in their head. I’ve seen it stifle ambition and, in some cases, even perpetuate the cycle of cruelty.

It's a truly miserable experience, whether you're a child in the schoolyard or an adult in the office.

But here’s the thing: we can make a difference. We can choose kindness and empathy.

That's what BulliesOut does every single day. They provide workshops and training in schools and workplaces because they know that bullying hurts, and they won't stop until it stops.

Did you know 64% of children report being bullied at school, and one in three adults are bullied at work?

BulliesOut works to empower and inspire people to overcome that behaviour, recognise their self-worth, and achieve their full potential.

By supporting my skydive, you’re not just helping me face my fears; you’re helping this incredible charity continue their vital work.

Every pound raised helps them get closer to a world where we lift each other up instead of tearing each other down.

Thank you for helping me make this insane jump for a very sane reason.
