Skydive for Katharine House

Experience free falling through the clouds from 13,000ft!

Take it from our Senior Community Nurse, Helen Fletcher, who took on a skydive for us.

"Just do it! I can't say loudly enough just how fantastic and exhilarating the whole experience was. I'd do it again in a heartbeat - not only for me, but for the hospice too. The skydiving team were so supportive and the moment when I sat on the edge of the plane and looked at the clouds before jumping was extraordinary."

And then watch this very short video showing Helen loving her intrepid experience.
