Would you like to take part in a sponsored skydive to raise money for the Ally Cadence Trust for Spinal Muscular Atrophy? We are arranging a tandem skydive for Friday 10th August 2012. There are limited places available so please book as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.
To book a place we require a deposit of £50 which is non refundable, then a further £125 is payable by Friday 3rd August at the latest. If you would like your own page setting up so people can sponsor you online we can do this for you. We will also send you out paper forms so you can collect more sponsors that way. Sponsor forms must be bought with you on the day and you will receive a certificate once you have completed your jump. Sponsor money must be handed in within 6 weeks of the jump taking place.
The Ally Cadence Trust for SMA will refund the £175 jump fee for anyone that collects AND hands in OVER £350! So get collecting as many sponsors as you can and you could jump for free!
Please read the following, which includes the terms and conditions BEFORE booking your place;
The Jump
You will exit the aircraft at approximately 13,000 feet securely strapped to the front of your instructor. The instructor will control the free fall element of the sky dive and open your parachute at approximately 5,000 feet, then steer you safely back to the landing area.
Course Duration
All participants need to allow one full day as airfield planning permission allows the aircraft to fly from 9am to 8pm on a daily basis.
Weather
The jump can take place in clear conditions with winds of 20 knots (23mph) or less. If the weather prevents the jump from happening you will be given a tandem jump ticket which can be used to rebook within a 6 month period at no extra cost. Please note that the Ally Cadence Trust cannot reimburse travelling costs etc if you are unable to jump. Travelling expenses, accommodation etc are down to the individuals.
Accommodation
Accommodation is available - please contact us for more information
Food and Drink
Food and drink is available throughout the day, however, alcohol is not allowed to be consumed whilst parachuting is taking place - the club bar will open once the last flight of the day has taken place.
Spectators
Spectators are welcome
Clothing

Restrictions and Conditions
The maximum weight limit for Tandem skydiving is strictly 16 stone (fully clothed) however, anyone over 15 stone (clothed) will be asked to pay an extra £10 to cover the additional workload for the instructor. Reasonable height to weight ratios and levels of fitness also apply. We have been asked that any ladies over 13 stone, needs to advise of their height WHEN BOOKING, due to ladies carrying weight differently to men.
Everyone is required to sign a declaration of fitness form on arrival, and anyone with a listed medical condition or aged over 40 will need to get the fitness form signed/stamped in advance by their doctor, and bring it with them on the day. Please take a look here at the restrictions and conditions where a doctors signature is required. Pregnant ladies CANNOT jump in any instance.
