Ty Hafan Children's Hospice

Hi. I'm doing a sponsored tandem parachute jump on 12th June 2010 with all money raised going to Ty Hafan Children's Hospice. (http://www.tyhafan.org/)

Tŷ Hafan was established in 1999 to provide respite, palliative and end of life care to the children in Wales who suffer from life-limiting conditions. Life limiting conditions are those which mean that the child or young person is not expected to reach nineteen years of age.

Children suffer from various conditions, such as Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, Cystic Fibrosis and Celebral Palsy. Some children are diagnosed at birth; others receive no diagnosis or at some point treatment is abandoned. Children and their families might receive our support for many years or just for a few days at the end of life. Either way, Tŷ Hafan provides love, care and support for the children and their families absolutely free of charge.

Tŷ Hafan is a registered charity and was established entirely from public donations. It now costs £2.5 million a year to run the hospice and all but 17% (Government funding) is raised through the generosity of our donors and supporters.

I would be very grateful to receive any sponsorship.

Would you be prepared and willing to sponsor me please?

I did a parachute jump (solo) many years ago, it remains one of the most frightening yet exilerating things I have ever done, you'll love it, and well done you. We'll pop over to your site later and have a see what we can do. Hope you do well in your fundraising

Thanks Sams247.

Although I have flown many times before I am absolutely terrified of heights.

Still I won't let children down and am looking forward to my jump
