How to skydive

 

You can book a jump at one of 20 centres across the UK though our friends at Skyline. You’ll jump in tandem with a fully qualified instructor.

Make lifelong memories as a group or on your own – you can even book a video to remember the jump by!

Frequently asked questions

FAQs

How much does it cost?

Prices vary depending on the airfield, but generally there is a non-refundable deposit of £70 to Skyline, with a minimum sponsorship target.

How much do I have to raise?
We ask for a minimum sponsorship of £450, to cover the costs of the skydive and a donation to support our services.
Where can I skydive from?

There are many airfields across the country that you can jump from, including:

  • Auchterarder
  • Cornwall
  • Durham
  • Grange-over-Sands
  • Maidstone
  • Netheravon
  • Norwich
  • Nottingham

Check out the full list and find your nearest airfield on Skyline’s website.

Are there any weight, age or medical restriction to do the jump?

The weight limits for men and women can vary between airfields, and some airfield have a strict height to weight ratio – please check the Skyline map to see the limits at each airfield.

For the tandem skydives the minimum age is 16, however anyone aged 16 or 17 would need to have a parental consent form on the day of their jump. A few airfields have an upper age limit for tandem jumps: Cornwall has an upper age limit of 65, Lancaster and Whitchurch have a limit of 70 and Perthshire has a limit of 49.

The British Parachute Association (BPA) insist that all participants complete and bring a medical form with them on the day. Whether you need to get the form signed by a doctor depends on your medical condition – you can access the medical forms on Skyline’s website, in their FAQs section.

Online fundraising tips

Here are some top tips for fundraising online:

  • Tell your story - help people to understand why your fundraising is important to you. People will donate more if they know your reason for fundraising. 
  • Talk about the charity - let people know how we have helped yourself and others, and that their generosity could enable even more people to be helped.
  • Add a photo - This will make your page more personal and bring it to life.
  • Add a target - pages with targets raise much more that those without!
  • Share your progress on social media - your friends are more likely to sponsor you when they see the hard work you're putting in.
  • The final push - Some people will sponsor you after the event is over - so remember to share your success with everyone afterwards.

If you haven't done so already, you can set up your fundraising page on JustGiving.
