IF you’re looking for an adrenaline hit which is out of this world, then why not sign up to a Phyllis Tuckwell skydive?

Run by the Army Parachute Association at the UK’s largest skydiving drop zone, in Netheravon, Wiltshire, the skydives are held to raise money for Phyllis Tuckwell, which provides supportive and end-of-life care for patients and families.

After an in-depth training session at the site, you’ll be taken to the aircraft and attached to your experienced tandem instructor. At 12,000 feet you’ll both make the jump, experiencing freefall speeds in excess of 120 miles per hour before your instructor deploys the parachute canopy and you begin your gentle five-minute descent.

The skydives will be taking place throughout the year, on Saturday March 25, Sunday, June 4, and Wednesday, September 27. Registration is £50 and Phyllis Tuckwell asks that you raise a minimum of £450 in sponsorship.
