Event details

Mersey Care Sky Dive 2025

Feel the thrill of leaping from 10,000 feet, securely strapped to your qualified instructor and experience a tandem skydive.

Skyline events will organise the logistics of your tandem skydive and our charity team will support you with your fundraising and provide you with packs and resources to help you raise funds for our work. 

What’s the upfront cost?

You are simply asked to pay a £70 deposit at the time of booking, payable to Skyline upon registration.

How much am I expected to fundraise?

You are asked to raise a minimum sponsorship of £450. (The charity will then be invoiced the £250 of the remaining 'jump costs' ('Jump costs' alone for this site are £320, which includes your registration fee  - and so all funds raised above £250 will be going directly to benefit the work of Mersey Cares!) If you are unable to raise the minimum sponsorship,  you will be asked to pay the outstanding for the jump on the day to Skyline.

How do I set up my fundraising page?
