My personal message:

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Many who know me will appreciate that jumping off a garden wall let alone out of a plane is fraught with danger, having previously broken an arm falling off a hotel step and broken a finger standing at the side of a dry ski slope (without skis!).

When I was asked by Breakthrough Breast Cancer to support them by raising a minimum of £20,000 for this worthy cause by skydiving from around 12,000ft on 22nd May 2010, I couldn't help but accept.

I hope that you'll sponsor me and help me achieve...and hopefully beat the £20,000 needed to undertake the skydive.  Your donations will help Breakthrough Breast Cancer get a step further towards their vision of a future free from the fear of breast cancer.

You can follow my progress over the coming months at http://boobybirds.wordpress.com

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Breakthrough Breast Cancer gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
