SUMMARY:Skydive for St Catherine's in 2026
DESCRIPTION:Take the leap for St Catherine’s Hospice – Your once-in-a-lifetime charity skydive experience  \n\n\n\nAre you ready for an unforgettable challenge that will leave you feeling exhilarated\, empowered and truly unstoppable?  \n\n\n\nIf you’ve been craving adventure\, excitement or simply a new way to push your limits\, a charity skydive is the perfect opportunity. With breathtaking views\, an incredible sense of achievement\, and the chance to support your local hospice\, this is your moment.  \n\n\n\nChoose a date that suits you\, secure your place\, and get ready for the ultimate freefall experience. And the best bit? Hit your fundraising target and you’ll jump for FREE!  \n\n\n\nHow to Sign Up  \n\n\n\nWe’ve partnered with GoSkydive\, the UK’s specialist tandem skydiving centre for first-time jumpers.  \n\n\n\n\nChoose your jump height \n\n\n\nSecure your place with a £50 deposit paid directly to GoSkydive \n\n\n\nPick any date that works for you (you can change it later if needed) \n\n\n\nStart fundraising and get ready for take-off! \n\n\n\n\nBefore booking\, please check that you meet the skydive criteria on the GoSkydive website.  \n\n\n\nJump Options & Fundraising Targets  \n\n\n\n10\,000ft Jump  \n\n\n\n\nDeposit: £50 \n\n\n\nMinimum Fundraising Target: £395 \n\n\n\n\n12\,000ft Jump  \n\n\n\n\nDeposit: £50 \n\n\n\nMinimum Fundraising Target: £460 \n\n\n\n\n15\,000ft Jump  \n\n\n\n\nDeposit: £50 \n\n\n\nMinimum Fundraising Target: £550 \n\n\n\n\nCovering Your Jump Costs – Two Options  \n\n\n\n1) Fundraise to Jump for Free  \n\n\n\nIf you reach the minimum fundraising target for your chosen height\, your jump will be fully funded through your sponsorship.  \n\n\n\nHere’s how it works (example based on 10\,000ft):  \n\n\n\n\nFrom the £395 you raise\, £184 (including your £50 deposit) is paid to the airfield by St Catherine’s Hospice \n\n\n\nThe remaining £211 comes directly to St Catherine’s \n\n\n\nAnything you raise above your target also supports the hospice \n\n\n\n\nImportant: If you don’t reach your minimum fundraising target seven days before the jump\, your skydive will become self-funded\, meaning you’ll need to pay the remaining balance yourself.  \n\n\n\n2) Self-Fund Your Jump You can also choose to pay for your skydive yourself at least seven days before your jump. This means that every penny you fundraise comes to St Catherine’s directly. If you decide to do this\, please let us know so we can update our records.  \n\n\n\nWhy Jump for St Catherine’s?  \n\n\n\nBy joining #TeamStCH\, you’ll receive:  \n\n\n\n\nA supporter pack filled with fundraising tips and ideas \n\n\n\nYour own St Catherine’s T-shirt to jump in \n\n\n\nDedicated support from our expert Fundraising team to help you smash your target \n\n\n\nThe knowledge that your courage is helping provide expert care for local people and their families

By signing up\, your team commits to fundraising at least an additional £1325 for our hospice\, but the challenge is on to raise even more so we can continue caring for local families who need us. \n\n\n\n\nFind out more and sign up!\n\n\n\n\nIf you have any questions\, give us our Corporate Fundraising Team a call on 01293 447365 or email us on corporate@stch.org.uk.
