Sir,

We are asking dynamic daredevils to freefall at speeds up to 120mph and witness captivating views while fundraising for Meningitis Now to take the wind out of the deadly disease.

The national charity's 10,000ft Skydive Day takes place on Saturday, July 5, in Swansea.

Meningitis Now will cover the cost of the tandem jump, run by professional company Skydive Swansea, if participants raise £395 minimum sponsorship.

The charity formed after Meningitis UK and Meningitis Trust, the founders of the meningitis movement in the UK, united in 2013.

The charity, which has almost 30 years' experience, exists to save lives and rebuild futures by funding research, raising awareness and providing support.

Our vision is a future where no one in the UK loses their life to meningitis and everyone affected gets the support they need to rebuild their lives.

To take to the skies to help us achieve our vision, call me on 01453 768000 or email [email protected]">[email protected].
