Charity

Post by +Osiris »

Just thought I'd mention;

This coming July 9th-10th, I will be doing Accelerated Free Fall for charity.

Skydive Homepage

For this charity World Cancer Research Fund

The reason behind me doing it for this charity is because back in 2007 my dad was diagnosed with cancer, and in January this year he had the big OK.

And I wanted to do my part in helping prevent people from having to go through the grief off such an illness, And maybe even help pretenting it taking a loved ones life.

It was extremely heart breaking, having to watch a very strong, never ill, always happy man, someone who works 6-7 days a week 14 hour days most days, Go from that to how my dad got, Even though he was still working and still smiling all the way through his illness, I knew deep down he was as frightened as the rest off us.

I can honestly say MY DAD IS MY HERO he is everything I want to be, I wouldn't off known what I have have done if I lost him!

So that is my big motivation behind raising money for what I feel is a very good charity!

I'm pretty sure you can skydive under 18, I think there is paperwork that needs filling out (from the doctor/partents)

Same as people over 40, They need there doctor to give them the Ok.
