Many people who make a Tandem Skydive do so whilst raising funds for a worthwhile cause. In return for raising a minimum amount the costs of the training and flight can be paid for out of the money you raise. However, this is between you and your charity. We suggest you raise at least £400 and once the costs of your training and flight have been deducted your charity will receive at least £130.

Help for Heroes was founded in October 2007 to help the wounded servicemen and women returning from Afghanistan and Iraq. The message of the charity is simple: We are strictly non political and non critical; we simply want to help. We believe that anyone who volunteers to serve in time of war, knowing that they risk all, is a hero. These are ordinary people doing extraordinary things and some of them are living with the consequences of their service for life. We may not be able to prevent our soldiers from being wounded, but together we can help them get better.
