What's involved?

How will Rainbows support me?

Take a leap of faith and feed the thrill-seeker hiding within, by taking part in a charity tandem skydive for Rainbows.

For many, skydiving is a once in a lifetime experience, giving you the chance to freefall 10,000ft and reaching speeds of up to

120mph. It’s also an amazing way to fundraise for us… and what’s perfect about this challenge is that you

can take part wherever and whenever you want; withw no experience required!

For this challenge, you’re securely strapped to a qualified and experienced skydiving instructor who’ll take care of everything for you, including deploying the parachute and ensuring you land safely.

When you take part in a charity tandem skydive for Rainbows, we’ll be with you every step of the way (although, if it’s ok with you we won’t get into the plane!).

We’ll give you:

• A Rainbows supporter t-shirt

• A fundraising pack full ofbrilliant ideas on how to increase your fundraising

• All the support you need from our friendly fundraising experts, who are on hand to help you set up your online fundraising page, give you hints and tips and work with you to help you reach for the skies and hit your fundraising targets!
