Help me face my fear of heights as I do a sky dive to support the amazing kids at Camp Quality!

Canterbury

Camp Quality is an amazing organisation that brings fun, hope and happiness to children living with cancer by providing week long summer camps! Each child is matched with their own companion, an adult who looks after them and helps them to get involved with a week of fun at camp. I am lucky to have been to Camp Quality 5 times now and have had the privilege of being a companion to 4 amazing children!

We are lucky to be teaming up with Skydiving Kiwis to raise funds for our 2021 summer camp! Anyone who knows me well will know that I am terrified of heights. I can't even stand on the glass floor in the Sky Tower without feeling a bit shaky and queasy! Jumping out of plane (or maybe just having to be thrown out due to paralysing fear!) will be a massive challenge for me but this is nothing compared to what our Camp Quality campers and their families have been through.

So now I need you! We need to raise $1000 to be able to complete the skydive and any donations will help our amazing campers to experience all that Camp Quality has to offer and for them to make special memories with their fellow campers and their companion. Camp Quality is such a special place for some pretty darn special kids! Any donations big or small are so greatly appreciated! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Next Sunday is the big day!  13 September 2020

Hey lovely supporters!

Next Sunday is the day!!! I'm jumping out of a helicopter and landing on the beautiful Sumner beach to support the amazing charity Camp Quality Christchurch. All things going well, I'm meant to land somewhere between 11:40 and 12 on the beach outside the Sumner surf club if you would like to come along. Wish me luck (goodness knows I'll need it!) and please put good weather vibes out into the universe. 🤞
