SKY DIVE!
Staff at Howgill Family Centre are going to do a Sponsored Sky Dive to raise well needed funds for new equipment for our Playbus.
Our Playbus has been into the rural communities for many years and is a life line for children and families.
The jump will take place on Saturday 13th February 2010 at Grange Over Sands, Cumbria. It will involve climbing to an altitude of 13500 feet and free falling 8000 feet in 45 seconds!
If you or your business would be interested in sponsoring us in any small way please contact our main office on 01946 62681 or use or donations link on the red section of about us then go onto online donations.
