A CHILDREN’S charity is encouraging supporters to take to the skies and wing walk to raise money.
Jessie May, a charity supporting families caring for terminally-ill children across Swindon and Wiltshire, partnered with AeroSuperBatics, the world’s only formation wing walking team, to offer an exciting fundraising experience.
Wing walkers will experience a series of flypasts, zoom climbs and steep dives.
Senior community events fundraiser Helen Mackie said: “If you’ve ever dreamt about flying, this is the perfect experience for you and on top of soaring the skies you’ll be making a world of difference to the families the Jessie May nurses support too.
“We are thrilled to have teamed up with AeroSuperBatics and offer wing walking to our brave supporters.
“We’re now calling on adrenaline-seeking fundraisers to sign up and help raise vital funds for our charity, so our nurses can continue to support families caring for a terminally ill child, and welcome additional children to our services.”
Registration costs £50, with a
minimum fundraising sponsorship of £1,000. Wing walking can be booked on a date to suit to each fundraiser.
