About MYTIME Young Carers

Who we are:

Imagine being just 10 years old and responsible for looking after a parent or sibling—cooking meals, giving medication, managing a household—all while trying to keep up with school and friendships. This is the reality for thousands of young carers across the UK. At MYTIME Young Carers, we are here to make sure these incredible young people are seen, supported, and given the same opportunities as their peers.

What we do:

Young carers often miss out on childhood moments that so many take for granted. That’s why we provide life-changing programmes—from adventure days where they can simply be kids, to workshops that equip them with skills for the future. We advocate for young carers, giving them a voice in schools and communities, and we create safe spaces where they can connect, feel understood, and know they’re not alone.

Why we need you:

Right now, too many young carers are struggling in silence. They put others first every single day, and now, they need us – and you. By taking on a skydive, you’re not just facing a personal challenge; you’re standing in solidarity with young carers, raising vital funds to give them the support and opportunities they deserve. Take the leap, make a difference, and show young carers that they are never alone.

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!

Step 1

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.

Step 2

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.

Step 3

Book your Skydive

Book individually or as a group with just a £100 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.

Step 4

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!
