Leap of Faith successfully completed

25th Sep 2024

Our intrepid Leap of Faith skydive team (Nikki, Sam, David, Aimee, Evelyn and Mike) have been eagerly awaiting their challenge since November 2023 when the idea was first raised. Two weather cancellations unfortunately left the team unable to complete the jump as a group of six, as co-ordinating 6 busy diaries for a third time was too difficult. Despite the challenges, half of the team (Nikki, Sam and David) were able to jump together on a glorious, clear Saturday morning at the end of May. It was a perfect morning for an unforgettable experience! With views of the Isle of Wight, Stonehenge, Salisbury Cathedral and Old Sarum, the whole team had an incredible time which was well worth the disappointment of the earlier cancellations.

The other team members all completed their jumps separately a little later and had an equally fantastic experience. The total amount raised by the Leap of Faith team to date is an astonishing £6700! All the team, but particularly Nikki, would like to say a huge thank you to everybody who has so generously supported this endeavour and sent messages of goodwill. We did promise a video after the event, so please watch the video below to see how we all got on. And if anybody has got a taste of adventure after watching this and would like to arrange their own skydive, do get in touch with the fundraising team (fundraising@familysupportwork.org.uk) for more information.
