Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am jumping out of a plane to raise money for the BFS at Hope House who have supported my wife whilst going through her treatment for breast cancer. They have provided both practical and emotional support and are there for anyone who has been diagnosed with cancer and provide support for the whole family. As a family this has been one of the most difficult years we have faced. The support provided by this charity has helped and continues to help us through it.

Every single penny will go to the charity, I have paid for the skydive myself as I wanted to give something back for all of the care, resources, and emotional assistance they have provided that has made an immense difference in our lives.

**Update** Due to the bad weather, my skydive has been postponed until the weather improves, which will probably be towards the end of November now.
