Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
This will be my 3rd Skydive. The first 2 were with each of my 2 daughters. As this may well be my last Skydive (hopefully through choice and not for other unthinkable reasons!!) - I have decided to try the Skydive with a slight twist - someone last year said they were disappointed that I didn't do the Skydive in a pink tutu as they would have paid more money to have seen it. Well un-named person (you know who you are...) now's your chance! If I can reach the goal of £5000 the event which will have photographic and video'd evidence, will take place with me lovingly adorned in a ballet outfit complete with tutu.
On a more serious note : ELY was formed by Angela and Steve Tyler who tragically lost their daughter and only child Emma (my niece) in a road traffic accident over two years ago. They were both devastated and the reality of what had happened was made worse when they did not have enough money available to pay for her funeral. Fortunately Emma's Nan took that additional stress and anxiety away from them and helped them to cover the costs. Somehow Ange and Steve have moved on a little and decided to set up ELY in memory of Emma. The Charity has somehow given them both something to focus on as they never want anyone in Herefordshire to be faced with a similar financial burden at such a tragic time again. Since the fund started we have raised nearly £20k through many small fund raising events, we have a small but dedicated team and our aim is to assist anyone in the county who may find themselves in a similar tragic situation by helping with funeral costs, bereavement council ling and assisting the family in any way possible
