Individual Skydivers 2026

Why I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK

I am going to jump out of a plane… with a parachute… for fun… and for Parkinson’s UK! 


I came across the work of Parkinson’s UK when my Grandad was diagnosed and I saw first hand the incredible impact of their support, as well as the beautiful community born out of families affected by the disease. For a good few years, it has been a personal goal to do my part in raising essential funds for this fantastic organisation and, in making my lifelong dream to fly a reality, I could not think of a more fitting way than through a sponsored skydive.


If you would wish to sponsor me, any donation will help fund pioneering research, personalised support services and campaigns for fair benefits and high quality health and social care. Thank you!
