WHY ARE WE STILL FUNDRAISING?

Sunday 15 September 2024 Strathallan, Nr Auchterarder https://bit.ly//henriskydive
Finola’s mummy skydives 10,000 ft to raise money to purchase a replacement Quickie Jive electric wheelchair for Finola & to raise necessary funds to refurbish the current chair & fit it so it can be gifted to Alex. Alex suffers from secondary progressive multiple sclerosis and is unable to get an NHS electric wheelchair.
“I would like to say the biggest personal thank you ever for absolutely everybody who has supported us. With so many people helping we managed to raise £13,300.98 and we have achieved the two chairs – yippee!
I must say this has been my biggest challenge yet but with the professionalism from Skydive Strathallan it was truly amazing. I never thought I would be able to launch myself out of a plane and especially at 10,000 feet!! The freefall lasted 35 seconds at which point we dropped 5,000 feet! I still cannot quite believe that I did it!
Through the help of so many we are delighted to say that we have made £13,300.98 as at 24th September. We are now in a position to be able to get both chairs & Finola’s chair is on order! I am hoping that both Finola’s and Alex’s electric wheelchairs will be available before Christmas. The tandem skydive was my biggest challenge yet as I hate falling and have a phobia about heights! An incredible experience and I was truly lost for words. Thank you so very much Skydive Strathallan. ‘Blue skies to you all’

Henri’s SkyDive has raised an amazing
£5,985.51 online after all JustGiving costs plus
£7,315.47 cash donations
Cumulative Total Henri’s SkyDive = £13,300.98
Along with our previous two years of Finola Trust fundraising events funds (2022 and 2023) which total £11,371.64 we now
have available funds of £24,672.62 to purchase BOTH chairs!
Thank you so very much to you all.
I understand from Motus Medical that currently Finola’s replacement chair will cost £15,500 (kindly reduced from £17,051)
& to refurbish and fit Alex’s chair (Finola’s current chair) is a further £8000 approximately.
So on behalf of Finola, Alex and myself and all our supporters thank you so very much for helping us to achieve this. You are all stars!
