Having an attempt to skydive and for a good reason is a perfect combination for adventure enthusiasts. Guild Care, the prominent social care charity in Worthing, has a noble mission – To support older individuals, those living with dementia, and children and adults with learning disabilities. At its core, Guild Care strives to combat social isolation and eliminate the stigma associated with it.

In her own words, Kerri Sparrowe shared her motivation, saying, “I had seen that Guild Care had advertised the opportunity for people to participate in a sponsored skydive. This had always been on my bucket list. I was immediately tempted. I mulled over the idea for about six months, mainly due to the fear of the unknown. However, I impulsively decided that if I didn’t do it now, I never would. As they say, you only live once!”
Kerri, not only did a wonderful thing for herself but this event set a benchmark for others. Skydiving is not everyone’s cup of tea. However, when it comes to charity, the mindset of giving your all is the key. There have been many people who have been through tough challenges to raise charity money. Going through hardships for a good cause, brings an immense feeling of joy.
