Skydive for Deafblind UK

Saturday 14 September 2024

Take the leap and book a tandem skydive challenge for Deafblind UK!

The sky is the limit! Experience an adrenaline-fueled adventure of a lifetime that will see you soaring through the sky from 12,000ft at speeds up to 125mph, before parachuting safely back down to the ground.

We work with 20 skydiving centres across the UK to provide tandem jumps with experienced and qualified instructors. So, you can choose a date and location that suits you.

Whether you’re looking to feel a true sense of freedom, tick something off your bucket list or take extreme measures to conquer a fear of heights, you can do so while raising much-needed funds for Deafblind UK.

What do I need to do?

Taking on a skydive for Deafblind UK is as simple as paying your deposit through our partners, Skyline, and pledging to raise at least £395 for people living with sight and hearing loss.

By raising £395, you will be enabling Deafblind UK to provide 16 hours of specialist wellbeing support to a person with deafblindness; thank you!

Can anyone take part?

Yes, anyone over 16 years old can do a tandem skydive. Experience isn’t necessary. You’ll receive all the training you need on the day and be safely strapped to a professional instructor throughout the jump.

For safety reasons, a few restrictions do apply, and these can change slightly depending on your preferred jump location:

  • If you’re between 16 and 18 years old you’ll need written consent from a parent or guardian.
  • Those with existing health conditions, and anyone over 40 years old, must sign a declaration of fitness in order to participate.
  • Upper weight limits apply which vary between venues. These are typically around 15st 8 for men and 15st 6 for women. Please check the restrictions for your preferred venue during booking. You may be weighed during registration.
