Skydive

What better way to celebrate turning the big 5-0 than leaping out of a plane in support of Demelza! ✈️🎉

I’m so excited to finally be ticking a skydive off my bucket list and even more excited to be doing it in support of such an incredible cause.

If you’re able to donate, no matter how big or small, it would truly mean the world to me and make a real difference.

Thank you so much for your support ❤️

My jump is planned for Sunday 24th May (weather permitting!) ✈️


Demelza is an amazing charity that delivers extraordinary care to extraordinary children who are facing serious or life-limiting conditions, throughout Kent, South East London and East Sussex. Were here for them and their families with expert clinical, emotional and practical support at every step from first diagnosis and for as long as were needed.

When they need us most, well be there; to reassure, to guide and to care. By their side when they feel isolated, helping to create joy in family life during challenging times and making precious memories.

Demelza believes in care that doesn't back down.

An Important Update on My Skydive Challenge 😞

Tuesday 19th May

I’m really sad to share that, following medical advice, I can no longer do the skydive 😔

A blood clot that was expected to have resolved hasn’t, and it turns out it’s actually two clots totalling five times the size of what I was initially told. Things are moving in the right direction, but I’ve been advised that I’ll need to remain on blood thinners long term, so it’s just too risky.

I’m absolutely gutted, especially after all the incredible support and generosity from everyone who donated. Thank you so much, it means more than I can say.

Rather than cancelling altogether, I’m hoping to transfer this to another challenge that feels just as meaningful, and I’ll share details as soon as that’s confirmed.

Thank you so much for your understanding 🤍 x

Love this 🪂

7 sleeps!!

Sunday 17th May

A week to go until my skydive! 🪂✈️😳

The weather is looking glorious, so there’ll be no rescheduling… which means it’s time to dust off the big girl pants!

A huge thank you to everyone who has donated so far, I’m so grateful for each and every contribution.

There’s still time to donate towards this very worthy cause 😉 Every donation, big or small, means so much.

Thank you all for your amazing support 💛 x x x

30 days to go!

Friday 24th Apr

30 days to go until my skydive! ✈️🪂🙈

I’ve been blown away by everyone’s generosity so far 😍, so I’m upping my target to £1000 for this final push 🙌

Surely it’s worth a few quid to see me jump out of a plane, right? 😜

Every donation makes a difference. Thank you for your support! xxx

Minimum Target Smashed - Now Let’s Go Higher

Saturday 21st Mar

I’ve got my t-shirt ready for the big day, I’ve hit my minimum target, thanks to all my fabulous sponsors, and I’m (almost) ready to go! 🤣

I’m going to push the goal even higher now, as every extra bit raised goes to such an incredible cause 💙

Now the real challenge begins… cutting back on the biscuits… or I might just need a bigger parachute 😅

Thank you to my Sponsors
