AgeUK IW’s 50th anniversary tandem skydive challenge supports independent living for the older community

In their 50th anniversary year, AgeUK Isle of Wight is looking for adventurous fundraisers to take on the incredible challenge of a sponsored tandem skydive from over 12,000ft!   

Our jump, going from Sandown Airport on Tuesday 8th August, will offer each jumper an unrivalled aerial view of the Isle of Wight. Every skydiver will experience freefall adrenaline at speeds approaching 120 miles per hour, followed by a stunning canopy ride back down to earth.    

Randall: 100% of money raised stays on the Island
Helen Randall, AgeUK IW Fundraising Officer, said, 

“This year we have teamed up with RenoDrain to support brave jumpers who want to tick something off their bucket list whilst helping out a great local charity!  

“AgeUK IW is an independent charity and 100 per cent of all fundraising support we receive stays on the Island to help us enable older people to live well independently”   

Sign up today
Interested? Brave fundraisers can secure their seat in the plane today with an £80 payment and a commitment to fundraise a minimum sponsorship of £400 for AgeUK IW. Each skydiver will be provided with a Fundraising pack and will be supported along the way to help them reach their goal.

Places are very limited – book early to avoid disappointment!
