Abbie and Fiona’s campaign for Mind

Hi! We are Fiona, 26 and Abbie, 18. We not only became friends through work, but have became friends for life. After a lot of thinking, we had decided between us that we wanted to do something for a good cause, something that would push us and help make a change! After exploring a number of different activities there were to raise money for charity, we had plucked the courage to choose a skydive. We chose a skydive, mainly because of the pride and success we would feel from not only doing this, but raising all the money to fund it. The charity we chose to do this for is, Mind. Mind is an amazing charity that offers amazing services such as information and advice for people struggling with mental problems! We thought this would be a great charity to support, as we have not only seen loved ones suffer through mental illness, but for the change we want to make to the rising statistics of people with a mental illness. We wanted to promote awareness for this charity by pushing ourselves to do something exhilarating, like a skydive! Although this will be a difficult challenge, it will be the most rewarding thing either of us have ever done! And we can’t wait to see the impact this creates. Our aim is to raise £750, and any donations would be appreciated no matter how big or small! And we can’t wait to see the impact not only us, but all people who have donated, have made. The skydive has been booked for the 14th of October, and until then we will be trying our hardest to raise as much money as possible to fund this and donate to this great charity! Thank you all in advance for any help and support throughout this, all of which will be valued.
