Tandem Skydive

Experience the thrill of jumping and free-falling in a sponsored tandem skydive to help beat loneliness for older people!
A tandem skydive is the easiest and most popular of all skydives. After just 30 minutes of training you get to jump strapped to a British Parachute Association (BPA) qualified tandem instructor who does all of the hard work for you, allowing you to enjoy the exhilarating feeling of flying through the clouds from over 10,000 feet at up to 120mph!
