Thank you to the crew at the charity for saving my life, with their quick thinking and performance – in what must have been a very high-pressure situation. I was written off all the way but the decisions they made have given me more time with my family and children.

Frequently asked questions
No—this is a tandem skydive with full training provided.
That’s completely normal—our expert instructors are there to guide you every step of the way.
We’ll give you simple, proven fundraising ideas and support to help you reach your goal.
The majority of airfields operate on the weekend but there are some that open on weekdays too. You can check the Prices & Locations page for opening days. We usually recommend you book a couple of months in advance to ensure you get the date you want (especially in the warmer months).
A Tandem skydive lets you experience free fall without the need for lots of training. You will free fall normally from at least 10,000 feet with the parachute being opened at 5,000 feet. You then get to float down the last mile with your instructor to a soft landing. This is the perfect experience for your first-time jump as you are attached to an instructor who does all of the work for you. This leaves you free to enjoy the view!
The airfields will look at each case individually, so please email Skyline Events at info@skylineevents.co.uk and they can check for you. With any medical condition- you will also need to have the medical form signed by a doctor.
The weight limits for men and women can vary between airfields – you can click here to see the limits at each airfield. Just click on your selected location to see the details.
Some airfields have a very strict height to weight ratio – if you are unsure please email Skyline Events at info@skylineevents.co.uk and they can let you know their limits with regards to your height. When you book on and provide your height and weight please ensure it’s within the weight limit of your airfield.
For the tandem skydives the minimum age is 16 – however anyone aged 16 or 17 would need to have a parental consent form on the day of their jump. You will have access to this once you have booked.
A few of our airfields have an upper age limit for tandem jumps: Cornwall has an upper age limit of 65, Lancaster and Whitchurch have a limit of 70 and Perthshire has a limit of 49.
