Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page.

hello lovely people,

I am doing a charity skydive in memory of my best friend abz calland age 26....I am doing it for the trinity centre in Winchester. I met abz around 2013 during a night out, abz was a party animal and was always showing off her moves and her amazing dress sence.. me and abz became best friends after meeting in this club where we danced and enjoyed the rest of the night and early hours till sunrise among my other friends on the beach. we became very close and we would always always be mistaken for twins.. or partners which we would laugh at hysterically. we both ended up sofa surfing from friends in the south to my family up north which abz became a very close part of.. like a sister and a daughter by my family. although abz has her family. and her beautiful mum maria who she loved very much abz was a lovely amazing person inside out. she was my rock and she was also loved by many other people. anybody could talk to abz with a problem.. minutes later its was solved by hysterical giggles as abz was defiantly the funniest person I and im sure everyone else knows. She was just like me always on the move unless she wanted sleep she would make sure she got it. We have many memories. As we are both phone and picture addicts we have many videos and many pictures. Not just of me and abz but of abz and her other friends and family which can all be found on her facebook. Things became in a way slight stressful on some days (very rarely due to the way we just could cheer each other up) so we started to use our time at the trinity centre in Winchester whilst awaiting housing, where we could do Arts and Crafts, Cooking lessons. I.T lessons. Gardening and many more Ping pong being favourite.. we had alot of support and could talk to all staff with any issues we may need help with. unfortunately our angel passed away at her young age in October 2015 and it has been a hard hit on many of us. friends and family. i had a feeling a month ago when i was heading to visit family up north that i have never felt before. i flew from Manchester to Southampton by plane and whilst in the air i felt so close to abz. i see abz now as an angel flying around in the sky. last time me and abz was in the sky was a holiday to gran canaria 2015... we had a great time and i would just really like not only for myself to feel like im flying high in the sky along side our angel abs freefalling but to donate something back to the trinity that gave us many happy memories. many laughs. and the place we gained our nicknames sonic and tails being attached at the hip. so i would just like to ask anyone that could donate anything to this charity to please do so. i will be adding more pictures and info to this soon i just want to get this out and up and running. the skydive will be in june/july which my trinity donations team is helping me with... if we reach the target do not hesitate to still make donations as it will still go to the trinity. any info needed don't hesitate to call the trinity in Winchester. I pay for my placement myself and all donations go to the trinity thank you very much for lreading about such a lovely person <3 xx
