They are great to work with and are very accommodating to our needs, which enables our supporters to have a memorable experience and raise vital funds for our lifesaving service.”

“I have been at Old Sarum Airfield to support people doing skydives for our charity and I have a done skydive there myself. The professional skydivers that I (and the other skydivers) jumped with were calm, friendly and put us at ease. It was a fabulous day!”
