Jump for Mothers Day
The simplest, most exciting way to raise money for NCT!
Join us in supporting new parents by doing a sponsored skydive at locations around the country. Jumps take place all year round so no need to wait for mother's day to take the leap. We're asking the thrill seekers out there to leap from a plane to raise money in support of new parents as they take the biggest jump of their life!
We would love to have you on board.
Simply book your place to jump online here!
NCT members and volunteers have raised thousands of pounds already by doing a jump, can you help us to raise even more? Take a minute to read about how Anna, an NCT volunteer, overcame her fears to do a sponsored skydive to help new parents.
Click here to book for you and any friends to jump in one of 19 locations across the UK. To find out more about taking part and the best ways to raise sponsorship money, get in touch with the Community Fundraising Team at fundraising@nct.org.uk or 0208 752 2377.
Find out what you could be in for, we have NCT President Sue Saxey's 2011 jump video.
The video is also available on NCT's YouTube channel.
So how did Sue find the jump?
"It was amazing! Just amazing. I loved every minute (except perhaps the minute just before we Jumped) and as soon as I landed I wanted to do it again. I am still on a high and I think it might be a while before you see me back on terra firma again. If you get the chance then DO it!"
And she is!
Join Sue and the Community Fundraising Team for a 10,000 feet tandem sky-dive. To sign up to jump we need a £70 deposit and we're asking our skydivers to pledge to raise £395 for NCT's work supporting parents-to-be as they prepare for birth and parenthood.If you meet your fundraising target you can claim back the £70 deposit, making your jump free!
Your sponsorship could along with covering the costs of your jump, fund a low income or young parent to attend a subsidized antenatal class. Giving them access to information and support, so they feel confident in giving birth and caring for their baby in the first few weeks.
What about jumping with a group of work friends? Many employers offer matched funding, helping you meet that fundraising target.
