Tony Bidmead from Hedge End will be celebrating his birthday in style by undertaking a tandem parachute jump from 10,000ft.
Turning 75 in July, Tony has chosen to mark the special occassion by taking on the challenge to raise funds for Southampton Hospital Charity, the League of Friends at the Royal South Hants Hospital and the RAF Regiment Fund.
Tony says, “I am looking forward to the skydive and hope to raise as much sponsorship as possible for three causes close to my heart.”
“By supporting Southampton Hospital Charity I hope to help them towards their aim of providing the very best medical equipment and facilities for patients treated at Southampton’s teaching hospitals.”
To sponsor Tony, please send a cheque made payable to ‘Southampton Hospital Charity’ to Mailpoint 135, Southampton General Hospital, Southampton, SO16 6YD.
