Sky Dive for St Margarets Hospice

    Take part in a Charity Sky Dive Day on behalf of St Margaret's Hospice Care in Somerset.

    St Margaret’s Hospice is proud to announce the return of the popular Charity Sky Dive. A tandem skydive is planned for Saturday 3rd June 2023 at Dunkeswell airfield near Honiton. This is an exhilarating, easy and enjoyable way to experience the thrills of skydiving whilst raising vital funds for our patients and families. Together your sponsorship could pay for a patient to receive 24 hours of In-patient care for 7 days at this event. No previous experience is necessary, and you will be joining our team of experienced flyers at 15,000ft to take you to the skies above Devon.

    What you will get:
    • Jump for free (when you raise the minimum sponsorship)
    • St Margaret's t-shirt
    • Help and support from our fundraising team.

    For more information about this event please contact Ellie Weston (Marketing and Events Officer) on 01935 709182 or email events@st-margarets-hospice.org.uk
