WheelPower, a charity providing opportunities for people with disabilities are looking for volunteers with a sense of adventure who are seeking the ultimate thrill - a sponsored parachute jump.

There are three types of jump available; a skydive from 10,000ft attached to a professional instructor, a solo jump from up to 3,000ft and accelerated freefall which is performed solo from 10,00ft.

You can jump on the weekend of your choice from one of over 20 British Parachute Association approved airfields across the U.K.  No experience is necessary as all training is included. 

Fundraiser Paul Rushton said: “This is the perfect way for thrill seekers to help us improve the lives of thousands of children and adults with disabilities.  Better still, the jump is completely free to everyone who raises enough sponsorship.”

Sport is the key medium through which WheelPower helps people with disabilities improve their quality of life. Through sport many people whose lives have been traumatically changed can have an outlet for their frustrations and energy.  By focusing on something they can do, and potentially can excel in, increased confidence and a positive outlook can be achieved and this can influence other areas of their lives.’
