Skydive for Guts UK
Challenge yourself and face your fears for people living with digestive conditions.
Overview
Embrace a view with a difference from 10,000 feet and soar through the air as you take on a tandem skydive in aid of Guts UK.
Whether you are an adrenaline junkie or looking for an experience to tick off your bucket list, this skydive is not to be missed.
There are many airfields all around the country, so there's one bound to be one close to you.
A tandem jump is the most common form of charity skydive. It is the skydive where you are harnessed to a professional parachute instructor at all times throughout your descent.
Not only will you be challenging yourself and potentially facing your fears, you’ll be doing something incredible for people living with digestive conditions. With your help, Guts UK can reach more people who need support and can continue to fund transformative research.

Weight limits
This is dependent on the airfield but is usually up to 18 stone. A surcharge of approximately £10 may apply for every stone over 15 stone. During the booking process, you will be able to see the maximum weight limit for your chosen airfield.
Spectators
There will be plenty of Guts UK supporters there on the day! You are welcome to bring along supporters and it is recommended that they arrive about an hour after your arrival time – this would give you time to have your training and get kitted up.

Jumps are weather-dependent, so it's not usually possible to specify a jump time prior to the day.
You will receive an arrival time once you are confirmed with the airfield – this is when you will check in and receive your training for the jump. The jump time would depend on the weather and how many other people are booked in that day. There is a small chance you could wait all day until you jump. The airfields do operate a first come first served basis – so the earlier you arrive the earlier you will jump!

William Woods skydived for Guts UK!
William got in touch with Guts UK shortly after his 75th birthday. He'd taken on a life-long dream of doing a Skydive and chose to do this for Guts UK after discovering their information and research into diverticular disease.
