Spectators

You are welcome to bring along supporters and recommend that they arrive about an hour after your arrival time – this would give you time to have your training and get kitted up.

Jumps are weather dependent, so it's not usually possible to specify a jump time prior to the day.

You will receive an arrival time once you are confirmed with the airfield – this is when you will check in and receive your training for the jump. The jump time would depend on the weather and how many other people are booked in that day. There is a small chance you could wait all day until you jump. The airfields do operate a first come first served basis – so the earlier you arrive the earlier you will jump!

NSPCC

The NSPCC has been here for children for over 100 years. They're the leading children’s charity fighting to end child abuse in the UK. Everything they do protects children today and prevents abuse tomorrow. 

Every pound you raise will enable us to fight non-stop to help all children have the best start in life, happy and free from abuse and neglect.

It’s a shocking fact that, on average, two children a minute contact Childline. Every one of them is a frightened child, suffering abuse and reaching out for help and protection. 

The NSPCC is determined to be there for every child who needs help. Whenever they need it. But they can’t do any of this work without you.

Do something incredible by joining #TeamNSPCC and helping make child abuse a thing of the past.

The minimum age requirement to take on a Skydive with #TeamNSPCC is 18 but there is no upper age limit at most airfields and there have been people who have done a skydive in their 90s before!
