Steve and Dave fundraiser for The Ripple Pond

Steve Downey is raising money for The Ripple Pond

Sky Jump of 829ft from the Strat Hotel Las Vegas · 10 April 2026

Supporting adult family members of physically, psychologically or emotionnally injured veterans and British Armed Forces personnel

Story

Why we are jumping off a Big Building...

Standing at 1,149feet the Strat is the tallest free-standing tower in America.

Every day, families and chosen family members across the UK face the often-hidden struggles of supporting a loved one that is serving or has served in the Armed Forces and is living with physical or psychological injuries.

The Ripple Pond exists to ensure that these families supporting an injured veteran or serving person are not alone, that they are truly seen, heard and supported.

The Ripple Pond supports adult family members that are caring for a loved one with service attributable physical, psychological and emotional injuries, supporting and providing employment roles and navigation for complex cases and 1-1 support.

The Ripple Pond recognises that behind every injured serving person or veteran, there’s a family that also serves, in provision of care.

To this end, my cousin Dave (who is getting married by Elvis the day before....) and we will be jumping off the Strat Tower on Friday 10th April to raise some monies for this outstanding charity.

If you would like to contribute that would be amazing and we would be so grateful.

Best wishes

Steve and Dave
