Charity Skydiving Event

DUCK Uni Skydive 2011

1 plane, 100 students and £20,000 for charity

Ever wanted to do a parachute jump? Now's your chance!

Back for a second year running DUCK Uni Skydive is a charity event you do not want to miss! It's pretty much impossible to beat the adrenaline rush and excitement that goes through the mind of a first time skydiver.

You'll be exiting a perfectly good aircraft, strapped to an instructor, and accelerating towards the ground at speeds approaching 120 miles per hour. The euphoria and emotion you'll experience as you land, having technically just fallen out of a plane, won't leave you for weeks - you'll remember skydiving for the rest of your life.

Most importantly, you'll have raised valuable funds for your charity of choice by doing the skydive. There are 2 payment methods:

Sponsorship Funded: You pay the £50.00 deposit (when you sign up). You have a sponsorship requirement of £400.00 which you must have raised by Sunday 24th April. You must raise these funds via DUCK's JustGiving page. £50.00 of this £400.00 will be used to refund your deposit. £200.00 of this £400.00 will be used to pay the balance. The remaining £150.00 of this £400.00, plus anything extra you raise over the £400.00 sponsorship requirement, will be passed from DUCK to the charity of your choice.

Self Funded: You pay the £50.00 deposit (when you sign up). You pay the £200.00 balance (by Sunday 24th April 2011). Total cost = £50.00 deposit + £200.00 balance = £250.00. You have a sponsorship target of £400.00 which you should try to have raised by Sunday 24th April. All of the funds you raise should be raised via DUCK's JustGiving page and will be passed to the charity of your choice.
