Hi I'm Indy (Sheenam's brother in law). Sitting at my desk one day I wondered is gravity real? To test the theory my colleague and I have decided to jump out of a plane. If gravity works, I should descend gracefully from over 12,000 feet at speeds of over 100mph before deploying the anti-gravity mechanism known as a 'parachute'. Then, like a majestic barn owl, I shall silently float down and place my feet once more upon the solid ground, safe and sound and fully in agreement of gravity.
Why they need our serviceI am doing this parachute jump for my chosen charity Sheenam's Wish. Sheenam's father sadly lost his life battling with Huntington's disease 10 years ago. A day after his funeral Sheenam discovered she had Juvenile Huntington's Disease (JHD) and has been bravely battling it ever since. She wants to help others with the same condition and founded Sheenam's Wish on her 29th birthday 5th Nov 2011. Sheenam is inspirational with a strong spirit and her wish is to make other peoples' wishes come true.
Plan and expected resultsSheenam's Wish aims to raise £10,000 by her 30th birthday on 5th November 2012. There are only about 100 young people in the UK who are known to have JHD. Sheenam's Wish will distribute the £10,000 raised amongst the 100 families. £10,000 will go towards providing some well deserved treats for the 100 young people.
