Nothing quite compares to the exhilaration and adrenaline rush you’ll feel during this incredible experience.
Following a thorough safety brief, you will board the plane and climb to over 13,000ft. Once strapped to your instructor, it’s time to jump! The feeling of free-falling through the sky is second to none and the stunning views as you parachute back to the ground will take your breath away.
The buzz felt can only be eclipsed by knowing how much of a difference your fundraising efforts are making. Fundraising in aid of Help for Heroes for your skydive means we can help veterans and their families recover and get on with their lives.

Who pays for my skydive?
You will need to pay a registration fee directly to your chosen supplier to confirm your jump in support of Help for Heroes. Once this is paid, you have two options:
- pay the full costs of your jump to your chosen supplier and register your fundraising with us. All of your fundraising money will go directly to supporting our wounded, or
- register your fundraising with us. We will pay the remainder of the cost of your jump from your fundraising total, to the supplier.
We want to be open and transparent with you about where your fundraising goes. We would obviously prefer people pay the costs of their jump direct to their chosen supplier as this means all your fundraising total goes directly to help veterans and their families. However we understand people may need to fundraise to cover the costs of their jump; we assure you that every penny raised will make a difference and we appreciate all your efforts.
When do I need to meet my fundraising target?
We ask that you plan your fundraising to meet your target at least two weeks before your jump.
Why do I need to register my fundraising with Help for Heroes as well?
Once you have registered the Help for Heroes Events Team will be with you throughout your fundraising journey, and share helpful tips and advice every step of the way. You will receive:
- a comprehensive fundraising guide to help you get started
- monthly fundraising ideas straight to your inbox!
- regular calls from the team to see how you are doing.
Remember, it’s not just about sponsorship from friends – you can plan events throughout the build-up to your skydive to help boost your fundraising total.
