Local animal lovers are being urged to do a skydive in aid of veterinary charity PDSA.

Leaping out of a plane from 10,000ft and hurtling towards the ground at 120mph is certainly not for the faint-hearted, but offers an amazing experience that will stay with you for life.

So, if you are a thrill-seeker and up for a challenge, and fancy taking the plunge to raise money for sick and injured pets, then please get in touch today.

Skydives are available across the UK and you can even do it for free when your raise £395 in sponsorship. To find your nearest venue and book your place, please contact me by email at fundraising@pdsa.org.uk or by phoning 01952 204 791.
