Two members of staff at The Complete Group whose head office is based in Telford will be taking part in a tandem parachute jump later this month to raise money for the Spinal Injuries Association, which celebrates its 35th anniversary this year.

Senior Complex Care Manager Sharon Lane and Care Manager Dave Peatroy, who both live in Shrewsbury, will be leaping out of a plane, strapped to an experienced jumper, at 10,000 ft on Saturday, June 27, at Hinton Airfield, in Oxfordshire.

The Complete Group specialises in providing complex care packages to adults and children with various disabilities, including spinal cord injuries, in their own homes and has frequently worked with the SIA to help patients over the years.

The company is preparing to provide a coach on the day, for staff to travel to the jump location and show their support. Family entertainment and a barbecue will also be laid on.

Sharon said: "I'm hoping it's going to be an amazing and successful experience, and one that I will enjoy! I've had no experience, but hope this will make me a stronger person, having to put my life in someone else's hands.

"I do hope to raise as much money as possible for the Spinal Injuries Association as it is a worthwhile charity."

Dave added: "I'm very excited and really looking forward to it - I haven't done this before although I have been paragliding, which hopefully gives me some idea of what to expect.

"I work with SIA all the time at work, and I know that it is a very good cause, so I was delighted to volunteer to take part."

Anyone who would like to sponsor Sharon or Dave can contact Jenna Normington at Complete Group on 01952 204017.
