About the event

Take a leap of faith and feed the thrill-seeker hiding within, by taking part in a charity tandem skydive for Derby and Burton Hospitals Charity.

For many, skydiving is a once in a lifetime experience, giving you the chance to freefall 10,000ft and reach speeds of up to 120mph.

Please note that for tandem skydives there is a MAXIMUM WEIGHT (fully clothed) of 95 kg (15 stone) or 83 kg (13 stone) if you are less than 163cm (5ft 4in). This limit is in place for your own safety and that of our instructors.

 

For a tandem skydive in the UK you must be a minimum age of 16. Anybody who is under 18 years old will need a parent or guardian who can also sign the forms.
