Skydiving near WsM/Bristol?

DS1 hits 21 next week and despite all efforts to persuade him otherwise wants to do a tandem skydive to celebrate.

I've googled but all the companies I can find are such a long way away - does anyone know of one in the Weston-super-Mare/Bristol area?

Our charity is organising one for next April, not that I shall be involved you understand, so I'll send a PM.

However when I suggested to DS2 that he might want to do this for us, he said it would be cheaper to do it via his University, so you could see if either Bristol or UWE have a Skydiving Society. Or even Bath and Bath Spa. But may be difficult to get details before October.

Have just checked, 'our' skydive is from Swindon so you may already have found this.

Anyone know of one near Cheltenham? Would like to set up a charity jump for my mates.

Find the British PArachute association website and click on the link on the left 'Where Can I jump?' and it lists all the places in the UK...

Phone the centre direct - don't book through a 3rd party vendor like Red Letter Days - you'll pay more and wont be speaking direct with the people who are doing the skydiving!
