About Boys in Mind
Who We Are:
Boys in Mind is a small but passionate team of senior educators, mental health experts, filmmakers and other professionals, based in the Bath area.
What We Do:
We work in partnership with children, young people and professionals in schools, universities and other youth settings to promote good mental health and prevent suicide, particularly among boys and young men. Our work is guided by our 3 P’s – Prevent, Promote and Partner:
- Prevent: Preventing suicide
- Promote: Promoting positive mental health and positive images of boys and men
- Partner: Partnering with young people, schools, universities and other organisations
Why We Need You:
Three quarters of all suicides are male and suicide is the leading killer of young men under 35. Despite much work to challenge the stigma around mental health, many boys and young men are still unwilling, or unable, to open up about their struggles and get help. They suffer in silence and, tragically, some go on to take their lives.
Boys in Mind was established to help turn things around, but we are a small and newly- established charity so we need YOUR help, energy and enthusiasm! Our overheads are very modest, so funds raised can go straight to where they are most needed. Please sign up for a skydive and help us spark conversations with young people which can be life changing – and life saving. Thank you!

Fundraising
Raising money for your tandem skydive via an online fundraising page makes it quick and simple for your friends and family to support you. You can share the link to your fundraising page via your social media pages and through texts and emails. If you haven’t done so already click through now and set-up your page or check out our Fundraising Ideas page to help you get the most out of your Charity Skydive.
How it works
Booking a charity jump
If you need help putting together your jump package, our Sales Team is more than happy to assist you. We’ll ensure you get a charity discount of £25 off our 10,000ft or 15,000ft skydives when your charity is selected. Determine if your charity expects you to meet a fundraising target or if you will be self-funding the skydive.
You’re all set to start fundraising once you’ve booked your skydive! Your charity can help you with fundraising, and we’ll be available to answer any questions you have about the skydive!
Build your team
Skydiving is even more exhilarating when shared with friends, why not invite your friends and family and create a shared experience with memories that will last a lifetime.
Select Your charity
Choose one of our 300 registered charities or jump in support of your own charity. Each registered charity will state if they will contribute to some of your jump cost or if you need to self-fund your own place.
Book your Skydive
Book individually or as a group with just a £50 deposit per person. Some of the charities we work with have reserved spaces on pre-booked days that you are more than welcome to join. See our date picker tool below.
Start fundraising
OK you're all set - We recommend you set up an online fundraising page as all funds you raise will automatically go to the charity of your choice.

You can still jump for them!
Non-partnered charities at GoSkydive offer a unique opportunity to make a positive impact while experiencing the exhilaration of skydiving. These charities, though not officially affiliated with GoSkydive, collaborate to raise funds and awareness for various causes. Participants can choose a cause close to their hearts and raise money individually or as part of a team, diving headfirst into an adrenaline-fuelled adventure that also helps those in need.
Our non-partnered charities still receive the same great discount of £25 off a 10,000ft or 15,000ft skydive that our partnered charities do. All you need to do is pay the balance of your skydive yourself and fundraise as much as you can for your chosen charity on the side!
