My Story

Why I’m Taking the Plunge

For the past four years, I’ve been a volunteer at Just Drop-In. As a group facilitator and mentor, I’ve witnessed firsthand the transformative impact their free counselling and wellbeing support has on young people aged 11-25 in our community. Their services are in high demand and the demand is growing fast. Every donation counts.

From Arctic Adventures to Skydiving

I’m no stranger to a bit of adventure. Last year, my son and I embarked on a wild-camping road trip into the Arctic Circle, driving a vintage 1960s Morris Minor. I’ve hiked parts of the Camino Way and even dangled 10,000 feet above ground from a Hercules transport plane. But there’s one thrill I’ve been putting off: skydiving.

Why Now?

Back in 1988, during a quiet moment at work, a friend and I discussed the idea of a skydive. We both agreed it was something we’d do “later.” Well, later is finally here! I’m ready to leap from that plane and raise funds for Just Drop-In.
