Tandem Skydive · 21 May 2008

We believe every moment matters so we go above and beyond to help our patients and their families make the most of every moment they have left. All our services are free of charge. We receive a 26% of our funding from the NHS and rely on donations to raise the extra £12m we need each year.

Story

Please take a moment to read below

On Saturday the 14th June I will be jumping a 10,000 feet freefall tandem skydive, freefalling at over 120mph! And Yes I am scared, BIG TIME! So why are you doing it you may ask?

The answer is in memory of my mum Beverley, who tragically passed away at the age of 50, on the 8th March from cancer, after  6 months. Mum spent the last 3 weeks of her life at the Trinity Hospice where I was able to spend our remaining time together as her daughter rather then her nurse, we shared laughter, special moments, prayers and her final moment.  The support in the hospice has been Amazing, Compassionate and Professional, treating my mum as an individual and the lady she was.  I think that it is only fitting that the money I raise is donated to the Trinity Hospice to continue helping so many families.


I have been overwhelmed and touched by the love and support already shown to me and my family, this will always remain in my heart.

I’m asking you to kindly sponsor me to do the skydive.  And for my lovely friends that may have wanted to give me a birthday present this year, please don't but donate the cash instead, it would mean so much more to me.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to donate: Trinity Hospice will receive your money electronically and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in Gift Aid will be added to your donation at no cost to you.

All donations will be appreciated if you don’t want to donate on line then please  call or email me and we can arrange an off line donation that I will forward to the charity.

Love
