On 29th June and 18th August 2024 our ten brave LGT skydivers completed the ultimate challenge to tandem skydive from 12,000 feet.

Taking in the breath-taking Kent countryside from above were- Peter Barnes, Craig Harrison, Oliver Turner and Jason Dyer from our trust partner HATS Group PLC.

Our LGT Podiatry team Gemma Fitt, Alecia Erdeman and Victoria Shellman. As well as LGT Director of Media, Communications and Engagement Claire Wilkes and her husband Ollie, and our own Fundraising and Engagement Coordinator Gemma Kelly.  


Lead Diabetes Podiatrist Gemma Fitt said of the day,

'What an amazing and truly unforgettable experience! To be falling through the sky on the most glorious summer's day is a memory that will stay with me always. Our team of Podiatry skydivers are so chuffed to have raised close to £2,000 for the Trust charity.  A massive thank you to everyone who supported us.'

Our Skydivers collectively raised a staggering £9,000 for our charity!

Huge thanks also to all those who have so generously contributed to their fundraising efforts 💙
