Our Chief Officer jumped on the 9th July to raise funds for ECHO.

It was a great day for it – Blue skies and fantastic visibility. Mike said ‘I wasn’t sure what to expect, but with the moral support of my family, trustees and staff I was OK on the day nerves wise’. 

‘The freefall was really noisy but an experience like nothing I’ve done before- I really enjoyed it though. After what seemed like short time- the parachute was pulled, we were yanked up in the air and then floating down in relative peace and quiet. I even got to control the parachute for a little bit, making turns as we went down. A bump on the bottom and we were landed!’

‘A great experience- I’d recommend it! ‘


Mike raised just under £950 all of which goes to supporting ECHO.
