About the event

Date: Saturday 18 May 2024

Location: Whitchurch Airfield, Shropshire, SY13 2HA

The tandem skydive is the most popular of all skydives – perfect for the newbie adrenaline junkie, as you’ll be strapped to a fully qualified instructor who does all the work, leaving you to enjoy the view!

Skyline events will organise the logistics of your tandem skydive and our charity team will support you with your fundraising and provide you with packs and resources to help you raise funds for our work. 

You are asked to raise a minimum sponsorship of £450.  If you are unable to raise the minimum sponsorship,  you will be asked to pay for the jump on the day. 

As the dedicated charity for Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust, we help our mental, community and social services do more to fund enhanced support, projects, and services usually outside the scope of the NHS.

With support, we’ve already done some brilliant things, such as provide gifts for children in care, fund ZSA suicide awareness training and deliver therapeutic sensory gardens for patients working towards recovery to go home. We’ve also been able to set up a monthly support group for Young Onset Dementia patients, host interactive and creative spaces for children and young people to write about their experiences after COVID, and provide support for foster carers and parents to understand teenage emotions. 

But there is still so much more we can do! Through asking people to #MakeItMerseyCares in 2024 we’re striving to make a real difference.
