🪂 15,000 feet, 125mph and £1,260 raised for an incredible cause!

On 14 August, Amelia and Sam took on an unforgettable challenge as they completed a 15,000-foot skydive in support of Rose Road Association

After a slightly foggy start, a safety briefing and some last-minute nerves, they took to the skies before experiencing a full minute of freefall at speeds of up to 125mph! 😱

Most importantly, thanks to the incredible generosity of everyone who donated, Amelia and Sam have raised an amazing £1,260 so far. 💙

Rose Road has confirmed that this amount could fund nearly a month of hydrotherapy, providing vital support that can make a huge difference to a family.

A massive well done to Amelia and Sam for taking on such an incredible challenge, and a huge thank you to everyone who donated and supported them! 👏🪂
