Flying high again with dad Skydive

Donation protected

Skydive to raise money for Motor Neurone Disease and to fly high with my Dad once again.

My dad died 4 years ago from Motor Neurone Disease. 
He was the life and soul of the party and was taken away from us way too early.
Dad received amazing support and care from MND association and I would love to raise and repay back as much as I can. 
Motor Neurones is such a cruel disease and is rare which is why it doesn't receive any financial support from the government and relies only on donations.
Motor neurone disease (MND) is an uncommon condition that affects the brain and nerves.
It causes weakness that gets worse over time. Losing all mobility , speech and the ability to even breath.
There's no cure for MND, but there are treatments to help reduce the impact it has on a person's daily life. 
£30 buys an adapted cutlery set to help someone with MND continue to feed themselves.
£75 funds an MND expert researcher for half a day.
£200 funds laboratory equipment for two days’ vital research into finding out the causes of MND.
£300 provides a basic level of respite care for one day.
£550 could fund a tablet device with communication software, giving the ability to communicate with loved ones.
£600 will fund a seat riser allowing someone with MND to raise their wheelchair so that they can reach shelves and talk to someone at eye level.
£1500 funds the installation of a straight stair lift for someone with MND to gain access around the house. 

I will be doing the skydive from 10,000 feet on the 5th of June at Langar airfield in Nottingham at roughly midday. 

Please help me raise to my target of £500.
Every donation big or small will help massively.
Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.
