Who We Are?
Dementia Carers Count (DCC) is a national charity dedicated to supporting family and friends caring for someone with dementia.
What We Do?
At DCC we believe that dementia carers count. We provide education, skills development and therapeutic services to family carers, who really need support but often find that it just isn’t there for them. Family carers tell us that our services making a lasting difference to their lives, they can develop skills and build confidence to navigate the highs and lows of caring for those with dementia. They learn how to make life manageable and maintain their own health and well-being, which is vital in being able to support those with dementia. All our services are free and we intend to keep it that way.
Why We Need You?
Make your jump count!
By supporting DCC with your sky dive, you are helping us to support dementia carers to attend our free courses which provide a supportive environment for those caring for someone with dementia to learn, connect and receive practical support to feel empowered in their caring role.
We want everyone who needs our support to receive it, but we can only do this with your help.
With a diagnosis of dementia taking place every four seconds, and 1.6 million individuals expected to be living with dementia by 2040 in the UK alone, a global spotlight has been cast on the condition.
Every year we must raise vital funds to continue our services for those who need us at a challenging time in their lives. We receive no government funding, so your support means you are helping to provide a crucial service which is only going to be in greater need in the future.
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.
fundraising ideasA list of charities that we are partnered with are here for you to select. Some of the charities that we work with have fundraising targets and others are self-funded by yourself, each charity we work with will state if they will contribute to some of your jump cost or if you need to self-fund your own place.
You can book individually or as a group with just a £50 deposit per person on any operational day. Some of the charities we work with have reserved spaces on pre-selected days that you are more than welcome to join.
OK you’re all set – This is now the time to start fundraising for your selected charity, we recommend to set up an online fundraising page as all funds you raise will automatically go to the charity of your choice. Please remember you are unable to use any money raised to pay for your skydive and if you have a target set by the charity you have to hit this 3 weeks before the date of your jump to ensure these funds are online for the charity to see!
