32 years ago I took on the challenge to do a static line parachute jump to celebrate my 18th birthday and raise funds for Guide dogs for the blind charity in memory of my Grandad.

It really was an incredible experience and one that I have always wanted to repeat…so when Pets at home publicised their fundraising activities this year, I thought this would be the ideal year to do it and join colleagues in raising funds for people and pets that really need extra support.

So, I am taking on the challenge of an 11,000ft tandem skydive on Friday 5th September to raise vital funds for Pets Foundation.

Pets Foundation rely on donations to continue our work across the country. Every pound raised enables us to continue to help pets and people who need our support. Your donation supports our grant programme and community partners across the UK.

A £5 donation can pay for a working assistance dog for a day and a £20 donation can fund an emergency vet appointment for a dog in need.

Thank you very much for your support!
