Get Involved

You can choose to skydive from 10,000ft or 15,000ft.

The charity tandem skydive experience is like nothing on earth and it’s pretty much accessible to all.

Want to see what a skydive involves? Louise is a staff member at UHD and recently took on a charity skydive – watch her video below:

Whilst there’s no physical preparation required prior to the day, you’ll need to make sure you meet the jump criteria. Here’s a few things you’ll need to know in preparation for your charity tandem skydive.

• You need to be at least 16 to do a tandem skydive, if you are aged between 16 and 18 you will need a parent or legal guardian to sign to give their consent. There is no upper age limit.
• On the day you’ll need to declare your fitness by signing a declaration form.
• The weight limit is up to 18 stone.
• Further details can be found by visiting goskydive.com

The charity tandem skydive for University Hospitals Dorset NHS Charity is organised by GoSkydive, Old Sarum Park, Salisbury SP4 6EB

We cannot believe we are already getting warmed up to go cheer on these seven amazing people next year who are running for our hospitals and the University Hospitals Dorset NHS Charity.

Knowing that you’re raising money for your local hospitals can give you a sense of purpose and an even bigger goal to work towards.

Supporting us can give you the boost you need to get up and train in the cold, wet winter months – particularly if our hospitals have helped you, or a loved one, through tough times.

By joining #teamUHD you will receive the full support of our team to help you achieve your fundraising target which includes motivational meet ups, a fundraising pack and your very own UHD Charity technical running vest.

Our London Marathon Ballot is now closed however if you have your own place and would like to run for UHD NHS Charity, please do let us know – we would love to support you! Please just email charity.events@uhd.nhs.uk for a fundraising pack.

Why not take on a Wing Walk? Feel the wind in your hair as you soar over 2,000 feet above sea level through the skies at speeds of 130mph on the wings of a Boeing Stearman Biplane.

There is nothing quite like the feeling of flight and Wing Walking is an innovative and exciting way to fundraise for us whilst enjoying spectacular views and making memories to last a lifetime!

Signing up is easy! Contact The Wing Walk company directly to book your space. Prices start from £390. A £200 deposit is required, and the remaining balance is due on the day. There is no fundraising target for the Wing Walk, it will be up to you how much you’re looking to raise!

Once you have signed up, please let our fundraising team know and we can provide you with all the information you need to get your fundraising started.

We are always here on hand to provide support and advice to help you reach your target. All Wing Walkers will receive their very own UHD charity T-shirt too!
