Skydiving success raises over £3,000 for Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance

A thrilling, freefalling thank you has been given to Shelley, Niki, Louise and Linda who took part in Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance (LNAA) Sky Dive Day earlier in the month and raised an incredible £3,477.

On 6 June, the four super supporters pushed themselves out of their comfort zone and took to the skies for an unforgettable tandem skydive. Flying through the clouds at 120mph they had a truly magical experience, with an incredible birds-eye view of Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire as they descended.

Shelley, from Lincoln, said: “The air ambulance crews have helped a few people I know out of some sticky spots over the years and in a large rural county like ours it’s an invaluable service that I have long supported when I can.

“The team at Skydive Langar made it an unforgettable day and I’m proud to have contributed to such a worthy cause. I would highly recommend this incredible experience to anyone looking to make a difference while having the time of their life!”

The next LNAA Skydive Day, delivered in partnership with Skyline Events, takes place on 6 October at Nottingham Airfield, Nottinghamshire. For more details email events@ambucopter.org.uk
