Support Autism Anglia at Beccles Airfield in Suffolk by taking on the adrenaline rush of a lifetime – a tandem skydive from 13,000ft.
Securely harnessed to your tandem skydiving instructor, you will experience freefalling for 50 seconds doing speeds in excess of 120mph, followed by the tranquil feeling after the chute opens of taking in the stunning views of the Norfolk and Suffolk coastline.
And by raising money for Autism Anglia, you will be helping to support autistic children, adults, and those that care for them across our region.
We have two dates to choose from – but if none of these suit then you can book for any day of your choice.
To secure your place you will need to pay a £50 deposit and commit to raise a minimum of £395 to ensure your jump is free, or there is also the option to self-fund your jump. Once you have registered and paid your deposit please email fundraising@autism-anglia.org.uk so that we can help support your fundraising.
