Fundraising Page for my Skydive

So even though I am organising the Tandem Skydive and trying super hard to get people signed up to the event, I am also jumping out of the plane myself (now I am starting to wonder why!) and so have finally set up my fundraising page where I hope to raise £500 for the CF Trust.

If you have decided you don't really fancy jumping out of a plane, but would like to support the event anyway, please please dig deep and donate what you can to support me in my Skydive! 

My page is www.virginmoneygiving.com/EmilyShimellForCF so please give what you can, every penny counts, and help us raise vital funds for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust.

If you would like to get involved with the actual Skydive, see my previous posts which gives more information about how to sign up!

This year, I have decided to take on the massive challenge of jumping out of a plane (one of the things I said I would NEVER do!) for the CF Trust, and thought perhaps you would like to jump with me, so this year we will be organising the CF Week Tandem Skydive 2013 with the aim of getting 20 - 30 people to take the leap of a lifetime (or perhaps start a new hobby) whilst raising much needed funds for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust!

We will be jumping on the 29th June at Old Sarum Airfield with GoSkydive, a hugely experienced company who run many charity jumps throughout the year.


Here is a Video from Go Skydive which will show you what is going to happen on the day and hopefully excite you enough to want to get involved! >> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adOJBg3sDfE

So if you have decided that this is for you, or want to chat to the Skydive team who can give you more information, please can I ask you to give Holly/Becky at Go Skydive a call on 01722568644 (press option 1). They will go through everything you need to know and once registered, will send out to you your skydive pack with T&C’s, arrival details, FAQs and a Medical Form (If over 40 you just need to get this signed by your doctor). 

As soon as you have registered, myself and Audrey at the CF Trust will be informed and get any further details out to you including how to set up a fundraising page (if you’re not sure) and getting sponsorship. I’d recommend trying to get registered up as soon as possible so you leave yourself plenty of time to get sponsorship from all your family and friends!
