“Hello, my name is Mand, I am an ECHO trustee and I want to raise some money for the charity. I am going to be doing something very exciting and hope that you will sponsor me. This is a big adventure!
In September 2022 I was very brave and went indoor skydiving. It was the most amazing experience. I really felt like I was flying”.
She added, “People with disabilities get forgotten about and are told that we can't do this, and we can't do that. Well, why not? There are always ways to adapt or improve things so we can be involved too. Can someone with a disability sky dive? Yes! We can do an indoor sky dive and the ECHO team have helped me to dream big and made it possible.
I loved it so much that I would like to challenge myself to do it again, this time for double the flight time!”
It is a very brave thing to do so to make sure everyone can see just how committed I am, I am going to be dyeing my hair different colours. The more money I raise, the more colours I will chose!
