Sky Diving Challenges

(throughout the year)

Not everyone's got it in them to jump from 14,000ft but thrill-seekers who want to try something different can seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Min. sponsorship targets start at £400 for a tandem skydive (includes £50 deposit, payable in advance) and are available throughout the UK. If you opt to jump at Nottinghamshire, Wiltshire, Devon or Scotland you have the chance of jumping with the British Army's world-famous Red Devil Parachute Display Team. Find out more and book your jump here!

 

If you can't make the dates listed, most trips are arranged throughout the year but whatever you decide to do, we will support you all the way so why not change your life and the lives of sick children all over the UK?  For further details on the above, or any other challenge, please email challenge@wellchild.org.uk, call Karl on 0845 458 8171 or complete the form HERE.
