Skydive for the MS Trust

Once you have read through all of our information, book your skydive here with the Skydive Centre Ltd.

Imagine standing at the edge of an open doorway in an aircraft flying at 10,000 feet - the noise of the engines and the wind ringing in your ears with only the outline of distant fields below. Now imagine leaning forward out of that doorway and letting go - falling forward into the clouds, skydiving down through the air as you start freefalling at over 120mph!

Well you can stop imagining as all this and more is available on one of our 10,000 feet tandem skydives which take place at 20 airfields across the UK (see map below). No experience is required as all training is given and if you raise the minimum sponsorship, this will cover the skydive costs too.

All participants taking part in a tandem skydive are required to sign BPA form 115A (PDF, 228KB). Anyone with a listed medical condition on this form, such as MS, diabetes or heart conditions, should seek qualified medical advice and certification using BPA form 115B (PDF, 107KB) prior to booking. These medical forms need to be taken with you on the day of your skydive. 

If you fundraise through JustGiving:

• You do not need to make any additional payments to MS Trust or the airfield.
• Your sponsorship money will come directly to us.
• The skydive centre will invoice us, and we will pay the cost of your jump from your sponsorship. 

We kindly ask that you make sure you have reached your £450 minimum sponsorship at least two weeks before your jump date, as this is when the centre invoices us. If this target has not been reached, we will unfortunately not be able to pay for your jump. 

If you collect your sponsorship offline:

• You will need to pay the airfield directly on the day of your jump using some of the sponsorship money you’ve raised.
• The jump cost is usually £250-£300 (depending on location), plus any fuel surcharge.
• Payment can normally be made by card or cash.

After paying the airfield, please send the remaining sponsorship to the MS Trust within four weeks of your jump date. This gives you time to collect any outstanding donations from your sponsors.
