Skydiving for Strangles

Skydiving for Strangles

The British Horse Society (BHS) are looking for hundreds of adventurous volunteers to make a fundraising parachute jump to help raise vital funds to help combat the horrific equine disease Strangles.

What's more if you raise more than £395 in sponsorship you will get to jump for free! There are three types of jump available, both solo and tandem, so there is something suitable for all.

No experience is necessary as all training is provided. You can do any of these jumps from any one of over twenty British Parachute Association approved airfields across the UK.

Amanda Watson, BHS South Development Officer who initiated the campaign said: "Strangles is an horrific disease that requires 'Extreme' action. I am thrilled to be able to offer people the experience of a lifetime and combine this with raising vital funds for the AHT research into an effective Strangles vaccine and diagnostic tool."
